Propshafts for Mercedes Vito, Mercedes Sprinter, Land Rover Discovery & More

Often confused with driveshafts, propshafts are essentially a rotating bar that is used to connect the engine (or gearbox) within a vehicle to the appropriate differential gear. Similarly, a propshaft can be utilised to transmit power from an engine to the propeller within an aircraft or boat; a use which explains their alternative title of ‘propeller shaft’.

Typically made from high strength steel alloy or a similarly rigorous material, the diameter of a propshaft can actually be rather small, however they are able to withstand considerable disruptive forces.

It is important that you use the right propshafts for your vehicle, and here at Driveline and Hydraulic Engineering Ltd, we provide in-demand propshafts – such as for the Mercedes Vito, Mercedes Sprinter and Land Rover Discovery – as well as a range of repair services to keep your vehicle in peak condition. A propshaft can also be commonly associated with centre bearing elements of such vehicles.

The main differences between driveshafts and propshafts are in their size and connection types. Propshafts are typically both smaller and lighter, a consideration which is assisted by not having a transmission tunnel, and they also pass through a rear differential as opposed to using a CV joint.

They are also used in different situations and vehicles, so despite the perceived similarities they are actually rather different in nature. A diverse range of components are always needed for use in these vehicles, so there is no one-size-fits-all solution for every purpose.
