🔩 Gear Box Flange for Eicher Canter 11.10 (N/M)
📌 Component Description
The gearbox flange (also called gear coupling flange or companion flange) is a torque‑transmitting driveline part fitted at the output of the transmission in the Eicher Canter 11.10 (N/M series). Its primary function is to provide a mechanical interface between the gearbox output shaft and the propeller/driveshaft that carries power to the rear axle. The flange typically features serrations or splines and bolt holes that match a corresponding propeller shaft yoke or companion flange, ensuring positive engagement and smooth torque transfer through the drivetrain.
🛞 Key Features & Function
🔩 Connects gearbox to driveshaft: Transmits rotational power from the gearbox output shaft to the propeller shaft.
🔧 Serrated / splined interface: Provides secure mechanical engagement with the mating yoke/flange to prevent slip under load.
🪛 Bolt‑on component: Designed to match OEM bolt pattern so it can be fitted tightly with high‑strength fasteners.
🔩 Durable construction: Forged or machined steel to withstand heavy torque, vibration, and shock loads typical of commercial vehicle drivetrains.
