2. Shaft (golf) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_(golf)

   The shaft is roughly .58 inch/14.7 millimeters in diameter near the grip and between 35 and 48 inches/89–115 cm in length. Shafts weigh between 45 and 150 grams depending on the material and length. Graphite shafts are woven from carbon fiber and are generally lighter in weight than steel shafts. Graphite shafts became popular among amateurs ...

3. Comparison of pumps - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_pumps

   This article lists different types of pump and provides a comparison of certain key design features. Different types of pumps are suitable for different applications, for example: a pump's maximum lift height also determines the applications it can be used for.

4. Constant-velocity joint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-velocity_joint

   A Rzeppa-type CV joint. A constant-velocity joint (also called a CV joint and homokinetic joint) is a mechanical coupling which allows the shafts to rotate freely (without an appreciable increase in friction or backlash) and compensates for the angle between the two shafts, within a certain range, to maintain the same velocity.

5. Shaft (mechanical engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_(mechanical_engineering)

   The following stresses are induced in the shafts. Shear stresses due to the transmission of torque (due to torsional load). Bending stresses (tensile or compressive) due to the forces acting upon the machine elements like gears and pulleys as well as the self weight of the shaft. Stresses due to combined torsional and bending loads.

6. Drive shaft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_shaft

   A drive shaft, driveshaft, driving shaft, tailshaft (Australian English), propeller shaft (prop shaft), or Cardan shaft (after Girolamo Cardano) is a component for transmitting mechanical power, torque, and rotation, usually used to connect other components of a drivetrain that cannot be connected directly because of distance or the need to ...

7. Components of jet engines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Components_of_jet_engines

   Shaft — The shaft connects the turbine to the compressor, and runs most of the length of the engine. There may be as many as three concentric shafts, rotating at independent speeds, with as many sets of turbines and compressors. Cooling air for the turbines may flow through the shaft from the compressor.
