I took the names out to protect the guilty...
My mechanical engineer will specify his shaft length for his design today in a followup email. It should be no longer than 4 inches or so.



The other shaft specifications follow:



0.250" OD

1/4-28 Thread pitch

0.250" Thread Depth, one end only.

Rockwell Hardness 60-65C

Straightness tolerance: 0.001 to 0.002 per foot.

OD tolerance: -0.0005" to -0.001"

Finish: 8-12 micron RMS

Chamfered ends?: Either way.

Depth of annealing on threaded end not to exceed 2X thread depth.

Depth of annealing on non-threaded end is zero.

Domed threaded rod end.



Also, can you include a quote for cutting the bare rod end off at a 60 degree angle and deburring?

Fucking OUCH!!

Oh... I formatted RD's post so it made more sense (it's good to be the king)

And I edited your's to add the closing bracket at the end. :)

It's better to not be the king, but have as much power.
