A Universal Joint Cross, commonly referred to as a U-joint cross or cross joint, is a mechanical component used in various vehicles and machinery to transfer rotational power between shafts that are not in a straight line. It consists of a central cross-shaped component with four trunnions, each of which is supported by bearings housed in yokes connected to the shafts. This design allows for angular flexibility, accommodating misalignments or variations in the angles of the connected shafts while maintaining smooth power transmission. Universal Joint Crosses are widely used in automotive drivetrains, agricultural equipment, and industrial machinery due to their durability, efficiency, and ability to handle high torque
