Technical data

Frequently asked questions

Can I use any linear bearing with this shaft?

What matters is matching the diameter (fi=20 mm) and the tolerance (h6) - you choose the bearing type (ball, plain, linear carriage) according to the design of the mechanism.

Does this shaft have a fixed, ready length?

Yes - it is a ready cut length of 1000 mm. It requires no cutting, measuring or additional machining before assembly.

What does tolerance h6 mean for this shaft?

Tolerance h6 (ISO) defines the permissible deviation of the outer diameter of the shaft - the smaller the deviation, the more accurate and repeatable the fit with the linear bearing.

Can this shaft be used for rotary motion or only for linear motion?

A linear shaft is designed for linear (sliding) motion together with a linear bearing or bushing - it is not a drive shaft transmitting torque, such as a hollow shaft or a splined shaft.

Where are fi=20 linear shafts used?

fi=20 mm linear shafts are most often used in: CNC sliding tables, linear axes of Cartesian robots, 3D printers, plotters, packaging machines, industrial automation feeders, measuring devices, positioning systems and prototype mechanical designs - wherever precise, repeatable linear motion guided on bearings or plain bushings is needed.
