Its long been my understanding that U-joints (and CV joints) were not that good at carrying large axial loads as might be found in the trust action produced by marine props transmitting their thrust forces to propel a vessel forward.
I ran across this Thompson Joint techonolgy and believe it is capabile of carrying much more 'prop thrust loading' than normal U-joints. Am I wrong??
