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

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

Keep a material certificate on hand for compliance and quality assurance needs. Certificates include a traceable lot number and material test report. These hollow shafts reduce system weight and allow you to run various media such as electrical wiring, compressed air tubing, coolants, or lubricants through the center.

With 2" of each end softened, it's easier to machine a custom end for mounting. The rest of the shaft is case-hardened, which increases hardness and wear resistance on the surface of the shaft while allowing the center to remain soft for absorbing stresses caused by shifting loads.

Made with two pieces, these shaft supports secure your shaft parallel to your mounting surface and make it easy to access the shaft without having to slide it out or uninstall the support. Use these supports when working with light to medium loads where shaft alignment is not critical.

Secure two linear motion shafts parallel to each other and the mounting surface to build a system that moves smoothly and doesn’t bind.

These shaft supports hold linear shafts perpendicular to the mounting surface.

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

At approximately one-third the height of standard versions, these rails provide linear shaft support in applications with low vertical clearance. They provide stability over the entire length of shaft, allow virtually unlimited travel lengths, and eliminate bending under moderate to heavy loads.

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

Eight times straighter than standard rotary shafts, these tight-tolerance shafts minimize vibrations and reduce wear to bearings and other components. They also have diameter tolerances that are twice as tight as standard rotary shafts.

Thread these shafts into a tapped hole to support idler sprockets and pulleys in tensioning applications.

Connect these internally threaded shafts directly to threaded components, or use a fastener to secure. They have a flat surface area that allows set screws to dig into the shaft for securely mounting gears, sprockets, and bearings.

These shafts have keyways only on the ends, leaving a plain shaft in the center. Use the keyways with machine keys to transmit torque to gears, sprockets, and other keyed components. Use the middle of the shaft with bearings and other round-bore components.

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

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

Good for hydraulic systems, machine tools, and other high-torque applications, these shafts have teeth that transmit high rotational loads.

From one compact system, transmit linear or rotary motion or both at once (sometimes called spiral motion). Because of these different motions, these ball screw/splines and bearings create efficient, fluid movements in complex automated applications, such as pick-and-place robots.
