Product features and benefits - Size options and length: available in 5 mm or 6 mm diameter, length 500 mm. Easy to select to match your project needs. - Material and durability: 304 stainless steel rod with high hardness, strong rust resistance and corrosion resistance. Stable and durable for long-term use. - Finish and workability: surface is polished for a smooth, shapeable finish with no cracks formed. Easy to cut and tailor to your application. - Versatility of applications: suitable for drive shafts, motor shafts, short support shafts, shaft pocket designs, miniature axles, and widely used in model planes, ships, and cars. - Material reliability: 304 is the most popular stainless alloy and maintains its properties in high-temperature situations. Key benefits - Improves reliability in mechanical assemblies due to corrosion resistance and durability. - Smooth surface reduces wear and simplifies shaping, drilling, or cutting. - Flexible size options and long length support a range of hobby and workshop projects. 1-3 practical use scenarios - RC models and hobby kits: use as drive shafts, motor shafts, short support shafts, or axles for model airplanes, ships, and cars. - Prototyping and robotics: create durable, straight shafts for bearings, gearboxes, or linkage systems in small-scale robotics. - General fabrication and repairs: cut to required length for fixtures, supports, or replacement shafts in workshop projects that demand corrosion resistance. Note: 304 stainless steel is chosen for its balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and temperature stability, maintaining performance in demanding environments.
