Hi everyone,

 

I am not a RC modeller but am in need of a component that some of you (I think - please correct me if I'm wrong) commonly use: A CV joint.

 

Problem is that none of those I could find on the web fit my requirements. I'm looking for a 24mm long, 8mm external diameter cardan joint that would have sockets for an X-shaped shaft on both ends (ideally no less than 6 mm deep). Capable of withstanding at least 400 mNm of torque.

 

Is anyone familiar with a company or an individual that could manufacture such a piece for a reasonable price? We're talking about a relatively small quantity (maybe 20).

 

Thanks in advance.

Current project:

HM Schooner Pickle by Peter Y. - Caldercraft - Scale 1:64 - First ever ship build

I don't see that they have CV joints specifically, but when I look for joints I usually look first at Dumas.

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
