Capable of rotating or moving around an axis; having the ability to turn around a center point.
From circum- (around) plus -axile (capable of functioning along an axis), combining directional and functional properties. A rare technical term.
Ball joints in car suspensions are circumaxile—they can rotate through multiple planes simultaneously, which is why vehicles can turn while going up hills without binding up.
