It features a 5\/16 inch male end and a 1\/4 inch female end, with an overall length of 6.94 inches. The joint accommodates a maximum operating angle of 30 degrees, making it suitable for applications where drive components are not perfectly aligned. Built to SAE standards and backed by a 1-year warranty, this universal joint is a reliable choice for maintenance professionals, machinists, and tool and die technicians working with hand tools, drive extensions, or precision mechanical assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis universal joint is suited for use with socket drive sets, torque tools, and mechanical drive assemblies in maintenance, repair, and manufacturing environments. Its 5\/16 inch male and 1\/4 inch female configuration fits into drive extension and adapter setups where standard inline connections are not practical. Installers working in tight or offset access points in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, or general mechanical service applications will find this joint useful for accessing fasteners at awkward angles without sacrificing torque transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16 inch male drive end and 1\/4 inch female drive end for flexible adapter configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum operating angle of 30 degrees for use in offset or restricted-access applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOverall length of 6.94 inches provides reach in deep or confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability under normal torque loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets SAE standards for drive tool compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-year manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit universal joint for 5\/16 inch male to 1\/4 inch female drive tool and mechanical drive assemblies meeting SAE specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by maintenance technicians and mechanics using standard hand tools. Ensure all connected drive components are de-energized or disengaged from power sources before installing or removing the joint. Do not exceed the 30 degree maximum operating angle, as exceeding this limit can cause premature wear or joint failure. Verify that both drive ends are fully seated and secured before applying torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMale Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFemale Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Operating Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.94 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: SAE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112832\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: APEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: KS-26-6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542451388722,"sku":"KS-26-6","price":155.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a6b0e637332f2af2f9d369f6b0e08ec8.jpg?v=1785900937","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/apex-ks-26-6-universal-joint-5-16-male-1-4-female-steel-sae","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
