Product Description

Linear shaft fi=45 mm, tolerance h6, by the metre

This linear shaft with a diameter of 45 mm is a basic component of linear guides, and we sell it by the metre. Material: steel Cf53 (1.1213), induction-hardened surface (60-64 HRC), tolerance h6 (ISO).

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=45 mm. You choose the bearing type (ball, plain, linear carriage) according to the design of the mechanism.

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.

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.

Where are fi=45 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.
