What is an axial joint?

Function:

  • Transfers steering motion to the wheels.
  • Connects the steering gear with the tie rod ends.
  • Allows the vehicle to steer smoothly.

Advantages:

  • Increase of steering flexibility.
  • Improvement of driving comfort

Axial joints with reinforced design

Full coating

Sidem’s axial joint range is being produced with a reinforced design. The parts are fully coated so that they can withstand any kind of oxidation.

Rust prevention

Every Sidem axial joint is treated with a dedicated finish to prevent the parts from rusting. The oxidation normally appears as a reddish-brown coat that can lead to corrosion, which should be avoided at all time. The coating stops the oxidation process so that rust doesn’t get any chance.

Durable parts

With an extra phosphate coating maximum strength of the axial joint is ensured. This way the parts have the longest life span possible.
