YOKE (BORE TYPE) OUTER LOCK FOR 38MM CROSS SONALIKA, SHAKTIMAN & MAHINDRA

This is a bore-type yoke designed for use with the 38 mm cross-section, outer-lock coupling system found on rotavators/implements used with brands such as Sonalika, Shaktiman and Mahindra. It matches item code UJ-106 in the parts catalogue: “YOKE (BORE TYPE) OUTER LOCK FOR 38MM CROSS SONALIKA, SHAKTIMAN & MAHINDRA”.

Key Points:

• “Bore‐type” indicates that the yoke has a bore (an inner hole) to slide over a matching shaft or hub, rather than being a solid plug or triangular coupling.

• “Outer-lock” style means the locking mechanism is external to the coupling rather than internal—so the fitment must match an outer-lock system.

• Designed for a 38 mm cross dimension (sometimes listed as 38 mm – 1210 cross) according to the parts listing.

• Multi‐brand compatibility: the part is listed for Sonalika, Shaktiman and Mahindra machines—useful if you have any of these equipment brands.

• Use case: Ideal as a replacement when the existing bore‐type yoke shows wear, the bore has become oversized, or the coupling system requires refreshed fitment to avoid slack, vibration or misalignment in the PTO/drive connection.

Installation & Fitment Tips:

• Confirm your machine’s shaft/cross is indeed 38 mm and the coupling uses outer-lock type (not inner-lock or different size).

• Measure the existing bore diameter in the yoke and the matching shaft/hub to ensure correct tight fit without excessive play.

• Inspect for any wear, deformation, or irregularities in the previous yoke—especially around the bore and locking surfaces.

• When installing, ensure the outer‐lock mechanism (pins, circlips, bolts etc) engages fully and the assembly is secured with correct torque/specification.

• After installation, run a test at low speed to verify there is no excessive vibration, misalignment, or unusual noise — which might indicate poor fitment or unbalanced coupling.
