Linear shaft fi=20 H6 stainless L=700

Product Description

Stainless steel linear shaft 20 mm, length 700 mm

A fi=20 mm shaft with a fixed length of 700 mm works well where an exact dimension matters more than running metres. Material: stainless steel X46Cr13, tolerance h6 (ISO) - no extra rust protection needed.

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=20 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.

What does tolerance h6 mean for this shaft?

It is an ISO designation describing the tolerance zone of the outer diameter - h6 ensures an accurate, repeatable fit with the linear bearing.

Can this shaft be used for rotary 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 splined shaft.

Where are fi=20 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.
