mboAngle joints according to DIN 71802 serve as connecting and guide elements for moving parts and create corner connections. These standard parts are not always sufficient for the construction, especially when the power transmission is to take place linearly. Specially designed for this application, the axial joint from MBO Oßwald represents a special solution in the field of angle joints according to DIN 71802.

The conversion of the absorbed forces does not take place in the angle of 90 ° but as 180 ° variant, ie linear. The possible swivel angle is comparable to DIN 71802 at ± 18 °, the pull-out forces of the ball stud from the ball socket, depending on the size between min. 30 and min. 100 N. The axial joints are available in the dimensions M5 to M16 in steel and stainless steel.

In order to give the design more creative freedom, the specialist mbo Osswald has developed another non-demountable variant. These axial joints are able to absorb particularly high load forces. In addition, it is possible to develop and implement application-specific special solutions.
