NB precision shafts are the foundation for bushing‑based linear systems. The catalog lists standard diameters and tolerances along with straightness, roundness and surface finish targets that safeguard bearing life and low noise.
Options include end‑machining for shoulders and threads, key flats, and corrosion‑resistant materials or coatings for wash‑down. Support methods—continuous rails vs. pedestals—are compared with notes on deflection and vibration.
The document connects shafts to matching bushings and housings, simplifying the creation of complete, compatible assemblies. Recommended fits and hardness ranges are summarized next to the dimensional tables for quick selection.
Storage and handling guidance rounds out the catalog: how to prevent dings and corrosion, and how to verify straightness before final assembly.
