Product Description
SWC180 Face-Tooth Universal Joint Drive Shaft – Curvic Cardan Coupling with Toothed Flange for Heavy-Duty Power Transmission
The SWC180 face-tooth universal joint drive shaft is a heavy-duty curvic cardan coupling engineered for applications demanding precision alignment, rapid assembly, and high torque transmission. Featuring a 180 mm nominal bore and a powerful 22 kN·m rated torque capacity, this toothed flange drive shaft utilizes an advanced face-tooth (牙嵌式) flange connection instead of traditional bolted flanges, ensuring zero-slippage power transfer and exact angular positioning between connected shafts.
Unlike conventional bolted-flange cardan shafts, the SWC180 face-tooth coupling employs precision-machined end-face teeth on both mating flanges. This design allows for quick connect/disconnect without removing surrounding equipment, while the interlocking tooth profile guarantees perfect concentricity and eliminates backlash under heavy shock loads. It is the ideal solution for mining machinery, heavy industrial equipment, large pumps, and construction machinery where maintenance access is limited and downtime is costly.
As a source factory manufacturer, Apexcoupling.com provides the SWC180 toothed flange cardan shaft with full customization support. Face-tooth flange dimensions and tooth profiles are confirmed with our engineering team to match your exact equipment interface.

Key Features – SWC180 Face-Tooth Cardan Coupling
✅ Precision Face-Tooth Flange Connection
The SWC180 curvic coupling features precision-machined end-face teeth (牙嵌式) that interlock for perfect radial and angular alignment. This eliminates the need for traditional bolts in torque transmission and ensures zero backlash under heavy loads.

FAQ – SWC180 Face-Tooth Universal Joint Coupling
Q1: What is a face-tooth (牙嵌式) universal joint coupling?
A: A face-tooth coupling uses precision-machined interlocking teeth on the mating flange faces instead of traditional bolts to transmit torque. This provides perfect alignment, zero backlash, and quick assembly/disassembly without removing surrounding equipment.

Q5: How does the face-tooth design improve maintenance?
A: Traditional bolted flanges require axial clearance to remove bolts. The face-tooth design allows the shaft to be disconnected by simply sliding it axially a short distance, freeing the teeth without full removal – drastically reducing downtime.
