Custom Driveshaft Composites

Drive Train Components

At APEX Space & Defense Systems, we design and manufacture high-performance composite driveshafts. Our driveshafts are made from premium wound composite materials with advanced properties and a superior strength-to-weight ratio. They are lightweight, strong, and safer at high speeds than traditional metal shafts. Our composite driveshafts are designed for equipment in the most extreme environments, including military vehicles like Joint Light Tactical Vehicles (JLTV), Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) class of hovercrafts used by the Navy, and more.

Patented Composite Driveshaft Designs for Superior Performance

Every driveshaft we produce is crafted using precision design and manufacturing techniques. Our patented technologies produce driveshafts with superior strength and durability for demanding defense and industrial applications. The engineers at APEX use industry-leading equipment and materials to ensure that every driveshaft we produce meets the most strict performance requirements. Our patented composite driveshafts with metal bonded couplings offer a range of advantages over traditional metallic driveshafts, including:

Better strength-to-weight ratio
Corrosion resistance
Reduced vibration & potential for warping
Less risk of overheating & thermal expansion

Applications for Composite Driveshafts

We produce custom driveshafts for a range of high-performance equipment and vehicles. Because our shafts are not susceptible to corrosion, they are a dependable solution for marine vessels, vehicles, and other equipment in high-stress saltwater environments. While focused on military and marine sectors, we have manufactured driveshafts used in a wide range of high-stress applications, including:

Elite racing vehicles
Marine vessels
Defense ground vehicles
Industrial machinery
And more
