Slip Clutch PTO Shaft for Disc Mower 1340

Product Benefits

Raydafon's Slip Clutch PTO Shaft is equipped with a double-plate friction plate slipping mechanism. When the disc mower encounters sudden resistance such as stones and tree roots, it can quickly cut off the power transmission within 0.3 seconds, effectively avoiding the distortion of the drive shaft or damage to the gearbox. Its precisely set 2,800Nm slipping torque can not only effectively protect the safety of the equipment, but also prevent the operation progress from being affected by frequent downtime, providing a reliable "invisible insurance" for high-risk working environments.

For complex terrains such as wetlands and slopes, the PTO shaft adopts a composite design of hydraulic damping and spring preload, which can automatically adjust the torque output when the resistance fluctuates, ensuring that the blade speed is stable and maintained in the ideal range of 1,800-2,200rpm. This intelligent compensation mechanism can not only improve cutting efficiency, but also reduce tractor fuel consumption by 12%, which is the preferred solution for both operating efficiency and cost control.

The product innovation adopts a combination design of three-lip skeleton oil seal and magnetic chip removal ring. Even if it runs continuously for 500 hours in harsh environments such as sand, dust, and dew, the metal particle contamination inside the universal joint is still lower than the ISO 4406 18/16 standard. The fully enclosed dust cover design can resist acid corrosion. Users only need to add grease regularly, without disassembly and maintenance, which greatly reduces the annual maintenance cost compared with traditional products.

The Slip Clutch PTO Shaft for Disc Mower 1340 is equipped with a self-resetting spring system. After overload slipping, power transmission can be restored within 30 seconds, and the reset efficiency is much higher than the manual reset shaft. In addition, the visual wear indicator ring can warn the clutch replacement cycle in advance, helping users avoid sudden failures and reduce downtime. It is an important component for large-scale ranches to improve equipment attendance.

Customer Testimonials

I am Tom Miller, a farmer from the Midwest of the United States. I have been using your PTO drive shaft in the corn fields of Iowa for almost two years. After replacing your PTO shaft, I have been working 12 hours a day for two consecutive harvest seasons without any problems. The cross-axis universal joint can rotate flexibly on the bumpy ridges, and even the spline parts that are most prone to wear have not shown any looseness. Your packaging is also very thoughtful. Both ends of the drive shaft are carefully protected with rubber sleeves. The wooden box also contains the soil moisture report of the Midwest region to remind us to adjust the maintenance frequency according to different seasons. In short, I am very satisfied with your products and services!

Hello, Raydafon team! I am Emma Thompson, a rancher from Queensland, Australia. I have been using your PTO drive shafts on my farm machinery for a year, and I have to tell you about the difference this product has made. The rubber parts of the previous drive shafts cracked in less than half a year under the strong ultraviolet rays in Australia. I didn’t expect that your PTO shafts have been used for a whole year, and the anti-rust coating on the surface is still shiny, and the cross-axis universal joint is still flexible during frequent angle changes. Even the most experienced mechanics on the farm praised the solid materials used. Thank you very much for making such a durable product. Now our three main farm machinery on the ranch have been replaced with Raydafon drive shafts. I look forward to trying your other farm machinery parts in the future!

I am Hans Müller from Germany. The PTO drive shafts on the farm always had problems, either breaking or slipping, until we used Raydafon products and completely solved the problem. The material used for your PTO shaft is so solid that you can feel the weight right away. The heat treatment process on the surface is very good, and it has not worn or rusted for so long. What satisfies me most is its universal joint design, which is very flexible when transmitting between the tractor and the farm machinery. It can stably transmit power even in complex terrain, and there is no need to worry about it suddenly disconnecting during operation. I sincerely thank Raydafon, and I will definitely choose you when my farm needs spare parts in the future!
