Slip-in-Tube Drive Shaft Market: Introduction

Slip-in-Tube Drive Shaft is a component of the drive line, designed to allow liner movement of two components and transmitting of torque & rotation in a drive train. Slip-in-tube drive shaft works provides crash safety by absorbing energy in the event of a crash and thus, it is also known as collapsible drive shaft.

Slip-in-tube drive shaft absorbs the linear movement of the vehicle, thereby making changes in the length of a driveshaft. Since it is an integral component of a drive line, the demand for slip-in-tube drive shaft is directly dependent on the growth of the automotive industry.

The positive growth outlook for the automotive industry, particularly in developing countries, is expected to boost the growth of the slip-in-tube drive shaft market during the forecast period. Owing to its various benefits, such as increased efficiency, better noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) performance, reduced weight and improved crash energy management, slip-in-tube drive shafts are expected to witness robust growth over the forecast period and will outpace the growth of other propeller shafts, such as single piece and multi piece shafts.

Slip-in-Tube Drive Shaft Market: Dynamics

Recovery of automotive industry over the past couple of years has fueled the growth of the slip-in-tube drive shaft market as they are an indispensable part of conventional automotive vehicles. Commercial vehicle segment is anticipated to witness robust growth, mainly driven by increasing public transport infrastructure, construction activity and goods transportation.

Further, the aftermarket segment of the slip-in-tube drive shaft market is expected to benefit from the rapidly increasing vehicle parc and vehicle aging.

With rising environmental concern, the consumer preference is shifting towards electric and hybrid cars. Furthermore, technological advancements coupled with favorable government policies and initiatives are driving the demand for electric vehicles, which in turn, is set to hamper the growth of the slip-in-tube drive shaft market during the forecast period.

Moreover, fluctuating raw material prices of materials, such as steel, aluminum and alloys of carbon, will restrain the slip-in-tube drive shaft market growth.

Increasing environmental concerns and stringent regulations are expected to drive innovation in the global slip-in-tube drive shaft market. Furthermore, growing concern for fuel efficiency, owing to increasing carbon footprint and stringent emission norms, are compelling manufacturers to develop lightweight slip-in-tube drive shafts.
