Universal joint is a 3 piece coupling unit, that works at high torque, medium speed and medium levels of misalignment.

Uni joint usually can be used at a maximum of 8° misalignment, but anything above this will cause premature wear and means replacement of the bearings.

Uni joints also have 2 input and output yokes that are areas of concern as they have a tendency to break especially when high torque is applied.

The Twin Spring Coupling can run at 15°, have no internal components to maintain or replace and as a one piece design means no broken yokes.
