Misumi Precision Linear Shafts

MISUMI's precision linear shaft features a consistent hardening depth and a light pre-load to a minimum clearance design between the shaft and bushing. This allows for smoother, more precise, and quieter operation.

The range of precision linear shafts offered by MISUMI includes a wide variety, with most offering configurability in 1 mm increments and a wide choice of end designs. In addition, an assortment of materials, shapes, and surface finishes is available to meet most application requirements. 

MISUMI offers 52100 bearing steel and 440C stainless steel as well as outside diameter sizes from 3 to 50 mm and lengths from 10 to 1,500 mm. Length tolerance, wrench flats, set screw flats, key groove, V-groove, relief, and other end designs are all available. In addition, express shipping options are offered so that configured parts can be shipped the same day. Furthermore, there is never a minimum quantity order or set-up charge.

In a typical machine shop scenario, a drawing is created, a blank is obtained, the blank is set up, and then the machining occurs. The MISUMI difference in its precision linear shaft is that the customer can use the CAD configurator to configure the precision linear shaft and download the native CAD file. The file can then be modified, and the precision linear shaft drawing can be inserted into the CAD assembly.

MISUMI precision linear shaft can be ordered using the Web Ordering System. This tool enables procurement to instantly obtain price and shipping information and also to obtain a request for quotation (RFQ). Additionally, the Web Ordering System provides historical order and quotation information that allows the customer to maximize the use of common components across multiple machines. Also, RoHS compliance and other data are available online at the component level for most components.
