The permissible r.p.m. of universal joints with needle bearings DIN 808 is higher than for those with friction bearings, but is still dependent on the load, duration of use as well as angular disposition. Ideal applications allow speeds of up to 4000 r.p.m. Needle bearings give the universal joints at 3° to 5° angular disposition a considerably higher degree of efficiency than those fitted with friction bearings. The needle bearings have a permanent lubrication and thus do not require servicing. Information regarding the selection of universal joints with needle bearing.
