Piece Parts

Global Marine can provide customers with all the piece parts required to install and maintain the Universal Joint (UJ). Global Marine is a founding member of the Universal Joint Consortium (UJC), and as a result, has played a pivotal part in the development of the UJ. The team has exceptional knowledge and is able to support the global customer base and ensure that each individual requirement is met with great accuracy.

Each cable type and variant uses different piece parts when using UJ technology. These parts are supplied as ‘common’ and ‘end specific’ kits in individual, rigorously packed and protected flight cases. Complete instructions for using the parts and assembling joints are available in the UJ & UQJ Explorer Memory Card, which is published on a quarterly basis. All parts are backwards-compatible so the technology you purchase always remains current.
