Presently, most cardan shafts for cars and light commercial vehicles are produced with staked universal joints.

To replace such U-joints, special tooling is required in addition to our PR-6 press.

We offer an optimal set of tooling for the PR-6 press, consisting of a base clamp and 6 sizes of center punches for all common U-joint types of cars and light commercial vehicles.
Each center punch is paired with a rest to retain the cardan shaft yoke.

All the parts of tooling for staking U-joints are manufactured from quality grade steel and hardened, which guarantees long-term service and proper retaining of the U-joints in the yokes.

In addition, the tooling can be resharpened up to 50 times.
