Tripod Plunging Constant Velocity Joints

High Speed Tripod Plunge Joint HSGI

High speed tripod joints are used where installed angles are low, but axial (plunging) motion is needed. This type of joint is often used in all-wheel drive vehicles to prevent engine movements or vibrations from being transmitted into the passenger compartment. The high speed GI (HSGI) joint requires a very low dynamic plunge force and can be used in operating angles up to 2 degrees.
