The Steel Shaft Rod is a 128mm long, 5.5mm diameter metal shaft made from alloy steel with a polished, corrosion-resistant surface finish and metallic silver color, featuring two pre-drilled mounting holes positioned near each end. This Steel Shaft Rod differs from smooth bearing-supported rods in StemVolt’s lineup — rather than sliding through a linear bearing, this rod bolts directly into a chassis frame or bracket through its mounting holes, making it a fixed structural shaft rather than a rotating or sliding component.
This metal shaft for rc car application suits suspension arm pivots, axle cross-members, and chassis linkage points where a rigid mounting shaft is needed at both ends rather than free rotation along the rod length. The metal rod for rc car’s polished corrosion-resistant finish keeps the surface smooth for any secondary bushings or pivot points that may ride on the shaft body between the two fixed mounting holes.
This metal drive shaft for rc car ships at a fixed 128mm length and 5.5mm diameter — builders needing a different length or diameter for a specific chassis design should verify dimensions match their build before ordering, as this is a fixed-size component rather than a cut-to-length rod. Reliable mechanical components from StemVolt at affordable prices.
