Top Functional Benefits

BIAX flexible shafts solve mechanical challenges that rigid components can’t. From navigating blocked paths to absorbing vibration and shock, these benefits highlight how our shafts enable motion in the most complex applications.

Parallel Offset

Transmits rotary motion between misaligned shafts.







Dampen Vibration

Reduces vibration from drive systems to protect sensitive components.

Blocked Path

Routes motion around physical obstructions in the system layout.

Restricted Access

Delivers torque into enclosed or hard-to-reach installation areas.







Moving Positions

Maintains function while connected components shift or move.

Change Directions

Redirects motion easily between non-linear axes or orientations.







Harsh Environment

Performs reliably in extreme temperatures, dust, or moisture.

Difficult Positions

Adapts to unconventional layouts where rigid shafts won’t fit.







Absorb Shock

Minimizes mechanical shock and load spikes in critical systems.
