Technical data

Frequently asked questions

Can I use any linear bearing with this shaft?

Yes, as long as the bearing or bushing is intended for a diameter of fi=12 mm. You choose the bearing type (ball, plain, linear carriage) according to the design of the mechanism.

How does the stainless version differ from the standard one?

The stainless version is made of steel X46Cr13 - it withstands contact with water and moisture without rusting, unlike steel Cf53, which has to be protected with oil in such conditions.

Does this shaft need lubrication or maintenance?

It needs no anti-corrosion protection. Lubrication is usually needed by the mating linear bearing, not by the shaft itself.

Can I shorten this shaft myself?

We do not recommend cutting it yourself - it can damage the hardened surface and affect the straightness of the shaft. It is best to install the shaft in the length supplied.

Where are fi=12 linear shafts used?

Linear shafts of this diameter are most often used in CNC sliding tables, linear axes of Cartesian robots, 3D printers, plotters, packaging machines, industrial automation feeders and measuring devices - wherever precise, repeatable linear motion is needed.
