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

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.

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

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.
