Metal fatigue, stress concentration, or corrosion all-cause shafts to deteriorate in strength. Fatigue occurs when the metal is subjected to repeated cycles of loading and unloading. A paper clip will easily break if you bend it enough times. The propeller shaft, which has a screw propeller at one end, transmits power from the engine to the propeller. The propeller shaft connects the gearbox to the vehicle's final drive gears via a universal joint and serves as the driveshaft. The drive can be transmitted through a variable angle using a universal joint. The propeller shaft is a hollow tube with universal and slip spline joints.
