About Shafts

Rotary Shafts

Use these general purpose shafts with bearings, sprockets, and gears to transmit rotary motion.

Keyed Rotary Shafts

Combine with a machine key to transmit torque to gears, sprockets, and other power transmission components.

Thread-Mount Idler Rotary Shafts

Thread these shafts into a tapped hole to support idler sprockets and pulleys in tensioning applications. They have a retaining-ring groove, retaining ring, and spacers to position your component and hold it in place.

Flange-Mount Idler Rotary Shafts

Mount the flange to a machine or wall to support idler sprockets and pulleys in tensioning applications. They include washers and a nut to position your component and hold it in place.

Rotary Shafts with Retaining Ring Grooves

Clip retaining rings into the grooves to separate and position gears, sprockets, and bearings.

Threaded Rotary Shafts

Attach threaded accessories, such as mixer propellers and fan blades, to the end of these shafts.

Step-Down Rotary Shafts

A shoulder near the end of the shaft provides a stop for gears, sprockets, and bearings.

Tapped Rotary Shafts

Connect these internally threaded shafts directly to threaded components, or use a fastener to secure.

D-Profile Rotary Shafts

A flat surface area allows set screws to dig into the shaft for securely mounting gears, sprockets, and bearings.

Linear Motion Shafts

Combine these general purpose shafts with a linear bearing and shaft support to create a basic linear motion system.

Hollow Linear Motion Shafts

Lighter than solid shafts, hollow shafts reduce your total system weight and allow you to run various media such as electrical wiring, compressed air tubing, coolants, or lubricants through the center.

Tapped Linear Motion Shafts

Internal threads allow you to mount these shafts onto threaded studs and fasteners, no shaft supports needed.

Threaded Linear Motion Shafts

Mount these externally threaded shafts into tapped holes rather than using a shaft support, or attach a hex nut, shaft collar, or other threaded accessory.

Linear Motion Shafts with Retaining Ring Grooves

Clip retaining rings into the grooves to separate and position collars, supports, and housings.

Step-Down Linear Motion Shafts

A shoulder near the end of the shaft allows for easy positioning of housings, shaft supports, and collars.

Support-Rail Shafts

These shafts include a support rail for a stable setup that eliminates bending and prevents linear bearings from rotating.

Splined Shafts for Rotary and Linear Motion

Grooves on the surface of these shafts transmit rotary power while allowing bearings to move freely along the length of the shaft.
