Paddock™ Flexible Drive Shaft – 6m & 8m, 3-Claw Coupling
Description
The Paddock™ Flexible Drive Shaft is a heavy-duty flex-drive shaft designed to transmit power from a compatible drive unit to equipment such as Paddock submersible flex-drive pumps. Available in 6m and 8m lengths, the shaft features an industrial 50mm (2") 3-claw dog coupling system for quick connection to compatible equipment.
Built for demanding construction, agricultural, drainage and water-transfer applications, the flexible shaft allows the drive engine to remain positioned away from the equipment being powered.
Paddock™ Flexible Drive Shaft – 6m & 8m
The Paddock™ flexible shaft provides a practical way to transfer rotational power from a compatible engine or drive unit to remote equipment such as a flex-drive submersible pump.
Its flexible construction allows the powered equipment to be positioned away from the drive unit while transmitting the rotational force required for operation.

Flex-Drive Pump Applications
A flexible drive system is particularly useful for pumping applications where the pump itself needs to operate remotely from the engine or power unit.
When paired with compatible equipment, typical applications can include:
- Construction site dewatering
- Drainage and water transfer
- Excavations and trenches
- Foundations and construction pits
- Underground and confined-access works
- Agricultural water transfer
- Council and civil maintenance
- Hire and rental equipment fleets
Heavy-Duty Flexible Construction
The shaft is designed to transmit rotational power while remaining flexible enough to accommodate practical equipment positioning on site.
This makes flex-drive systems useful where a conventional rigid drive arrangement would be impractical or where the drive engine needs to remain separated from the equipment being operated.
Industrial 3-Claw Dog Coupling
The shaft uses a 50mm (2") 3-claw dog-style coupling for connection to compatible drive equipment.
Before ordering, confirm the coupling type and shaft length required for your equipment.

Compatibility
This listing is for the flexible drive shaft. Drive engines, pumps and other compatible attachments are separate unless specifically included in the selected product option.
Confirm the required shaft length and 50mm (2") 3-claw dog coupling compatibility with your existing equipment before ordering.
Operation & Maintenance
Inspect the flexible shaft and couplings before use and ensure all connections are correctly engaged and secured. Avoid excessively tight bends, kinks or operating configurations that place unnecessary stress on the shaft.
Follow the maintenance and operating requirements for both the flexible shaft and the equipment connected to it.
