Description
The simplest way to figure out whether a PTO is North American or metric is to determine the shape of the tubing and shafting. A PTO is domestic if the tubing/shafting is square, rectangle, hex or splined. If the tubing/shafting is bell, lemon, or star-shaped, then it is metric. There are two types of metric drive lines: German style (Walterscheid) and Italian style (Bondioli & Pavesi). The German style shafting has lemon and star profiles while the Italian has a bell shaped or 4 lobed design.
Tubes serve as a metal cylindrical encasement for a shaft within a given PTO drive shaft, and provides supplemental reinfocement to the drive shaft. Tubing is available in both domestic (North American) and metric profile shapes. Domestic tubing is provided as square, rectangle, or round. The Weasler Profile product line includes metric and tubing available in both German and Italian styling: German style provided as lemon or star in shape and Italian as trilobed in shape.
