Keyed Rotary Shafts
Combine these shafts with a machine key (not included) to transmit torque to gears, sprockets, and other power transmission components. All have an ANSI standard keyway (keys not included; see our selection of key stock). Their edges are chamfered to remove sharp corners, reducing damage to bearings, housings, and other components during installation. All are turned, ground, and polished to tight diameter and straightness tolerances.
Steel shafts are generally stronger than aluminum and stainless steel shafts but not as corrosion resistant. 1045 carbon steel shafts balance high strength and good machinability, making them ideal for general purpose use. 4140 alloy steel shafts have a higher yield strength than 1045 carbon steel shafts for supporting heavier loads; however, they are more difficult to machine.
Stainless steel shafts are more corrosion resistant than steel shafts but also more difficult to machine. 303 and 304 stainless steel shafts have good corrosion resistance. 303 stainless steel shafts are annealed, which makes them softer than 304 stainless steel shafts but more corrosion resistant.

Attach threaded accessories, such as mixer propellers and fan blades, to the end of these shafts.
To Order: Please specify the length of the shaft (in 0.005" or 0.1 mm increments). For the keyed end of the shaft, please specify keyway length (in 0.005" or 0.1 mm increments). For the threaded end of the shaft, please specify thread size, thread length (in 0.005" or 01. mm increments), and step length (in 0.005" or 0.1 mm increments).

Tapped Linear Motion Shafts

Internal threads allow you to mount these shafts onto threaded studs and fasteners, no shaft supports needed. Smooth, hard, and wear resistant, linear motion shafts work with linear bearings to reduce friction in manual and automated systems, such as those found in packing, machine tool, and material handling operations. The smooth surface reduces friction and wear on the bearing—the lower the microinch value a shaft has, the smoother its finish and the less friction it will create. Shafts are case-hardened to increase hardness and wear resistance on the surface of the shaft while allowing the center to remain soft for absorbing stresses caused by shifting loads. The edges are chamfered to remove sharp corners, reducing damage to bearings, housings, and other components during installation. All are turned, ground, and polished to tight diameter and straightness tolerances.
1060 carbon steel shafts balance high strength and good machinability, making them ideal for general purpose use.

Step-Down Linear Motion Shafts
A shoulder near the end of the shaft allows for easy positioning of housings, shaft supports, and collars. Smooth, hard, and wear resistant, linear motion shafts work with linear bearings to reduce friction in manual and automated systems, such as those found in packing, machine tool, and material handling operations.
Made of 1060 carbon steel, these shafts balance high strength and good machinability, making them ideal for general purpose use. They're easier to machine than 52100 alloy steel shafts.The smooth surface reduces friction and wear on the bearing—the lower the microinch value a shaft has, the smoother its finish and the less friction it will create. Shafts are case-hardened to increase hardness and wear resistance on the surface of the shaft while allowing the center to remain soft for absorbing stresses caused by shifting loads. The edges are chamfered to remove sharp corners, reducing damage to bearings, housings, and other components during installation. All are turned, ground, and polished to tight diameter and straightness tolerances.

Setup Studs

Secure setup clamps and fixtures to your machine table, or assemble heavy machines, such as engine mounts. These studs act as a pilot when connecting parts since they’re headless, which eases installation. Unlike a bolt, which has a head, they let you access parts from either end, but they require nuts to hold the part. Pair them with a T-slot or flanged nut when securing to a machine table. Or, put a nut on before your part to work as a float, allowing you to adjust the height of your part. The unthreaded middle is useful for gripping and adjusting. Also known as double-ended studs.
Steel studs are stronger than stainless steel studs. But, unfinished steel studs will rust from air and moisture.
