Package contains: 1 x Hardened and ground round steel shaft Ø 3 mm
High surface hardness ensures great performance and high wear resistance (hardening), while low roughness reduces friction and noise while increasing smoothness (grinding).
These rods feature a depth of hardening, parallelism, roundness and straightness designed and manufactured to allow linear and precise movement.
They are ideal for building linear motion systems on both 3D printers and small CNC machines such as milling machines, pantographs, lasers, etc.
Not to be confused with cheaper "soft" (mild steel) steel round guides, which have less wear resistance and can lead to problems in smoothness and thus affect the quality of movement.

The item you will receive may differ in some features from the one shown in the photo, depending on the production batch. Despite this, the functionality is maintained.
What is the difference between a ball screw and a trapezoidal screw? ...
The ball screw uses steel balls to reduce friction, offering greater precision, speed and durability. The acme screw is simpler and more economical, ideal for static loads or where very high positioning speed is not required.
How can I reduce the vibrations of my CNC machine? ...
The use of properly lubricated quality linear guides and the integration of elastic drive couplings can drastically reduce resonance and vibration, improving the finish of machined parts.
Do you offer assistance in the selection of mechanical components? ...
Of course. Our technical team is available to assess your project specifications and recommend the most suitable materials and components for the intended workload.
