Above mentioned Python-Drive units are supplied complete with CV-drive shaft, thrust bearing unit, adaptor flanges for most regular 4”, 5”, 5.75” and 7.25” gearbox flanges, all bolts, nuts, thrust-rubbers and lock washers. Also included is an easy to read installation manual.

Python-Drive features: 
  • Double ended constant velocity drive shaft suitable for both Pleasure and High Performance applications. 
  • Eliminates the need for exact alignment of prop shaft to gearbox. 
  • Maintenance free thrust bearings. 
Advantages of fitting a Python-Drive: 
  • The constant velocity drive shaft guarantees a constant prop shaft speed, even when angles are unequal. 
  • Propulsion thrust is isolated from the gearbox by being absorbed by the rubber mounting blocks. 
  • Not only is de Python-Drive robustly constructed, it is available in both Imperial and Metric dimensions, covering prop shafts from ¾” (19.05 mm.) up to 4” (100 mm.). 
  • The thrust bearing units can be used as stand alone units, on request they can be machined to suit universal (cardan) shafts. 
  • Python-Drive constant velocity drive shafts are able to take torques of up to 1,500 kgm. (appr. 14.7 kNm.). 
  • Drive Shafts are available in different lengths and can be made to suit individual sizes. 
  • Supplied complete with all necessary studs, bolts, washers, gearbox flange and accompanied by an easily understood installation manual.
