2926-32 Tube Weld Yoke 7290 Series , Inside Snap Ring Style

Retention Style: The 2926-32 is specified as Inside Snap Ring -- the U-joint cap retention groove is located inside the yoke ear bore rather than on the cap OD. Verify the 7290 U-joint you intend to use matches this retention style. Snap-ring style mismatches result in loose joint retention and rapid failure.

The 2926-32 steps down to a 3.250"x0.065" tube from the 4.000" variants, addressing lighter-duty 7290-series applications where the smaller tube diameter is appropriate for the shaft torque and speed requirements. The 3.130" butt diameter is consistent with the standard step-down calculation for 0.065" wall (3.250" - 2x0.065" = 3.120" bore; 3.130" butt creates a slight interference that centers the yoke). The 1.812" CL-to-weld is compact for a 3.250" tube -- confirm this dimension matches the required shaft length when recalculating the tube cut. This weld yoke is steel, suitable for all standard GM 7290-series medium-duty applications in the 3.250" tube diameter class.
