VEVOR PTO Shaft 1-3/8 in 6 Spline - Durable Brush Hog Driveline

Our review of the VEVOR PTO Shaft finds it a practical, heavy-duty replacement for owners of brush hogs, rotary cutters, and similar PTO attachments who need a reliable driveline. The single biggest reason to buy is its rugged construction: a CE-certified Series 4 driveline built with a 20CrMnTi carburized universal joint, Q345 steel tube inside the shield, and an integrated slip clutch that protects the transmission line. For anyone replacing a worn shaft or upgrading to a unit that balances strength and safety, this model stands out.

Key Features

• Slip Clutch: Protects the tractor and implement by disengaging under overload, reducing the chance of costly damage.
• 6 Spline Ends: 1-3/8 in x 6 spline tractor and implement ends ensure a direct fit with common brush hog and finish mower hubs for dependable power transfer.
• Sturdy Materials: The carburized 20CrMnTi universal joint and Q345 steel tube deliver long service life under heavy field loads.
• Adjustable Length: Telescoping tube compresses to 31.5 in and extends to 41 in, covering a useful range of implement offsets without custom modifications.
• Torque Capacity: Rated for typical PTO speeds with 35 HP at 540 rpm and higher capacity at 1000 rpm, offering dependable torque for cutters and tillers.

Who It's For

This shaft is aimed at small to medium farm owners, landscape contractors, and homestead operators who use rear PTO attachments such as brush hogs, rotary tillers, and finish mowers. It is a straightforward replacement part for tractors and implements that use a 1-3/8 in 6 spline connection and need the safety of a slip clutch and a protective shield.

Those who need a custom length outside the 31.5 in to 41 in range, or who require specialty splines or quick-disconnect driveline systems, should look for a different model. Also, very high horsepower industrial implements beyond the listed torque guidance may demand a heavier series shaft.
