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=50 mm. You choose the bearing type (ball, plain, linear carriage) according to the design of the mechanism.

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.

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=50 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.
