Borgeson needle bearing universal joints are machined on state of the art CNC equipment from steel, stainless steel, or aluminum. On-going engineering and testing ensures that we offer the strongest, safest and smoothest operating steering universal joint available today. Borgeson needle bearing universal joints have the distinct advantage of lasting nearly 10 times longer than non-needle bearing joints. Borgeson  recommend only needle bearing universal joints for vehicles that are used on the street. Borgeson needle bearing universal joints have no backlash or radial play. They are permanently lubricated and sealed and require no maintenance.
Using a Borgeson double universal joint can negotiate angles over 30º. Available in steel, stainless steel, and aluminum, these doubles accommodate angles up to 70º and are available in all spline and DD configurations. Note: Using a double joint in addition to a single will require a steering shaft support bearing see design section for details.
