Product Description

UNCA/UNCW Universal Joint Coupling – Pin & Snap Ring Type | Single or Double Joint

Factory automation standard | 42CrMo alloy steel | H7 precision bore | Up to 40° angle per joint

The UNCA (single) and UNCW (double) series are precision universal joint couplings with pin and snap ring design. They are ideal for FA factory automation, offering high torque transmission, large angular compensation, and low maintenance.

✅ Also available as CSCA/CSCW universal joint series – same high quality, different naming.

Product Selling Points

✅ 42CrMo Alloy Steel – Strength & Durability

  • High strength and toughness after heat treatment

  • Excellent fatigue resistance and multiple‑impact endurance

  • Wear‑resistant for long service life

✅ H7 Precision Bore

  • Bore tolerance controlled to H7 (high accuracy)

  • High concentricity – ensures smooth running, reduces vibration

  • Precise fit with shafts

✅ Large Angle Compensation

  • Single joint works up to 40° without performance loss

  • Reduces accidents caused by misalignment

  • Low inertia, high angular adjustability

✅ Low Backlash & Low Noise

  • Precision‑machined cross shaft and needle bearings

  • Tight fit, flexible rotation, quiet operation

  • Suitable for applications requiring smooth, precise motion

✅ FA Automation Standard – High Availability

  • Large stock of standard sizes (UNCA/UNCW, CSCA/CSCW)

  • Fast response for both clockwise and counter‑clockwise rotation

  • High transmission efficiency

✅ Multiple Surface Finishes & Materials

  • Standard: black oxide

  • Optional: nickel plated, zinc plated, polished (bright finish)

  • Material upgrade: 304 stainless steel for corrosion‑resistant environments


Product Structure & Features

  • Pin & snap ring design – easy assembly, secure locking

  • Single joint (UNCA) – compact, for short span with angular misalignment

  • Double joint (UNCW) – allows larger parallel offset, smoother motion

  • Cross shaft with needle bearings – reduces friction, extends life

  • Precision machined yokes – ensures consistent quality


Applications

  • FA factory automation (pick & place, conveyors, indexing tables)

  • Packaging machinery

  • Printing machinery

  • Textile equipment

  • Medical devices (low noise requirement)

  • Food processing machinery (304SS option)

  • Robotics & linkage mechanisms

  • General industrial drives where large angle or offset is needed

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between UNCA and UNCW?
A: UNCA is a single joint (one cross shaft) – for angular misalignment up to 40°. UNCW is a double joint (two cross shafts with a center yoke) – allows angular plus parallel offset, smoother motion.

Q: What is the maximum working angle?
A: For single joint, 40° within normal use. The absolute limit per joint is 45°.

Q: Can I get a 304 stainless steel version?
A: Yes. We offer 304 stainless steel for corrosion‑resistant applications (food, medical, marine). Lead time may be slightly longer.

Q: What surface finishes are available?
A: Standard is black oxide. Also available: nickel plated, zinc plated, or polished (bright finish).

Q: Is there any backlash?
A: The UNCA/UNCW series has very low backlash due to precision‑machined cross shaft and needle bearings. For absolute zero‑backlash applications, we recommend our rigid couplings.

Q: Do you stock standard sizes?
A: Yes. UNCA, UNCW, CSCA, CSCW are standard FA automation series with high inventory.
