Research Summary
A side shaft, also known as a drive shaft or axle shaft, is a component of an automobile's drivetrain responsible for transmitting power from the differential to the wheels. Typically found in vehicles with front-wheel or all-wheel drive configurations, side shafts are long, cylindrical shafts that connect the differential to the wheel hubs, allowing the wheels to rotate. They are designed to withstand the torque generated by the engine and transfer it efficiently to the wheels, enabling propulsion and vehicle movement. Side shafts are commonly constructed of high-strength steel or alloy materials to ensure durability and reliability under heavy loads and harsh operating conditions. Regular maintenance and inspection of side shafts are essential to ensure proper function and safe operation of the vehicle's drivetrain.
