Splined Yoke 03 – Non-Interfering Bolt Type

The Splined Yoke 03 – Non-Interfering Bolt Type is a precision-machined PTO shaft end yoke featuring a non-interfering bolt that secures the yoke without deforming the shaft — allowing easy removal and reinstallation. Engineered from forged alloy steel with splined bore connection, it provides a secure, high-torque interface between the PTO shaft and universal joint assembly. Available in multiple series to fit standard agricultural and industrial drivelines, this yoke is CNC-machined, heat-treated, and surface-coated for continuous field operation. Supplied by Ever-power with ISO 9001:2015 quality assurance and global shipping.

Splined Yoke 03 Non-Interfering Bolt – Reusable Secure Splined PTO Yoke

Non-interfering bolt | Reusable connection | Z6 & Z21 | Unlimited assembly cycles

Splined yoke for PTO shaft

The Ever-power Splined Yoke 03 uses a non-interfering bolt and groove system that locks the yoke firmly on the shaft without permanently deforming either component. Unlike the 02 series interfering bolt, this design allows hundreds of assembly/disassembly cycles with zero wear — making it ideal for agricultural contractors, hire companies, and maintenance workshops that regularly reconfigure drivelines.

⭐ Key Features & Benefits

🔓

Non-Interfering Bolt

Precision bolt seats in a shaft groove without deforming — fully reusable connection.

🔄

Unlimited Assembly Cycles

Remove and reinstall as many times as needed — no bolt or groove wear.

💪

Forged Alloy Body

Same rugged C45 forged construction as our entire splined yoke family.

⚙️

Z6 & Z21 Splines

Available in 1 3/8" Z6 (B) and 1 3/8" Z21 (D) configurations.

🔄 Compatibility Information

Suitable for shared-use and multi-implement operations where drivelines are reconfigured frequently. Fits 1 3/8" Z6 and Z21 shafts from Walterscheid, Bondioli & Pavesi, and Comer. Popular among agricultural contractors managing diverse machinery fleets, hire companies renting PTO-driven equipment, and maintenance workshops performing regular driveline servicing.

📚 Selection Guide

Step 1: Count the splines on your PTO shaft to determine B (Z6) or D (Z21) sub-type.
Step 2: Confirm the shaft has a non-interfering bolt groove (a smooth annular channel without deformation marks).
Step 3: Match bore dimension A and ear width B to the spec table for correct series selection.
Step 4: Keep a spare non-interfering bolt in your toolkit — they are inexpensive insurance against field delays.

PTO end yokes

🌾 Typical Application Scenarios

⚙️ Contracting Fleets

Operators managing 10+ implements who need to swap drivelines daily without wear.

🔄 Equipment Hire Companies

Rental machinery that must be reconfigured for each client without component degradation.

💾 Workshop & Maintenance

Service centres performing routine PTO overhauls and driveline inspections.

🌾 Seasonal Implements

Equipment stored off-season and reconnected annually with no reassembly issues.

🛠️ Installation & Usage Guide

1

Verify the shaft groove is clean and undamaged — the non-interfering design requires a smooth groove surface.

2

Slide the yoke onto the splined shaft and align the bolt hole with the shaft groove.

3

Thread the non-interfering bolt through the yoke body until its tip rests in the groove without excessive force.

4

Snug the bolt to the specified torque — do not over-tighten, as this defeats the non-interfering purpose.

5

Fit the cross kit and grease all zerks with EP lithium grease.

6

To remove later, simply unscrew the bolt and slide the yoke off — no force, heat, or puller required.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

▶ How is the 03 different from the 02?
The 02 bolt deforms into the groove (semi-permanent). The 03 bolt seats without deforming, allowing unlimited reuse.
▶ Is the non-interfering bolt included?
Yes, a correctly sized bolt ships with every yoke.
▶ Can I use a 03 yoke on a shaft designed for 02?
Yes, as long as the groove is not already deformed from a previous interfering bolt. A smooth groove is essential.
▶ How secure is the non-interfering connection?
Very secure for standard PTO operation. For extreme vibration, consider the 02 interfering bolt type instead.
▶ What spline options are available?
1 3/8" Z6 (B suffix) and 1 3/8" Z21 (D suffix) are standard for the 03 range.
▶ Any special maintenance needed?
Inspect the bolt and groove every 100 hours. Replace the bolt if threads show wear.
