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=40 mm. You choose the bearing type (ball, plain, linear carriage) according to the design of the mechanism.

Does this shaft need lubrication or maintenance?

The shaft itself needs no lubrication, but in a damp environment it is worth protecting the surface with anti-corrosion oil - steel Cf53 is not corrosion resistant.

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.

How much can the shaft bend over its length?

The permissible deviation from straightness is up to 0,5 mm per metre of length - this is the standard for precision linear shafts, regardless of diameter.

Where are fi=40 linear shafts used?

Large-diameter linear shafts are used in heavy linear axes of machines, presses, production lines, manipulators and internal transport equipment - wherever the linear guide carries high loads.
