The supporting component for all linear drives and clamping systems from Uhing
The basis for every linear movement - stable, precise, uncompromising.
Uhing precision shafts are the mechanical centrepiece for non-positive linear systems such as Rolling Ring Drives and Linear Drive Nuts. They enable backlash-free, smooth movement - with minimum friction and maximum service life.
Manufactured from high-quality steel alloys, precision-ground, polished and induction-hardened, they offer the optimum combination of hardness, concentricity and surface quality. Whether in harsh industrial environments or in highly sensitive processes - the shaft makes the difference.
Used in:
- Rolling Ring Drives (RG/ARG/RGK)
- Linear Drive Nuts (RS)
- Easylock (EL)
- U-Clip (UC)
- Positioning and lifting drives
- Linear guides, special machines, handling and testing technology

- Rust-resistant, for damp or corrosion-prone areas: X46Cr13 (1.4034) with a hardness of 51-55 HRC
- Rust & acid resistant, for aggressive or hygiene-sensitive environments: X90CrMoV18 (1.4112) with a hardness of 52-56 HRC
Lengths, finishing and special bores are customised.
Product advantages: The Uhing difference
Durable
Thanks to the selection of high-quality materials and state-of-the-art manufacturing processes, we offer high-quality drive shafts that are customised according to customer requirements.
Versatile
Available in various materials, lengths, diameters and tolerance classes. Compatible with Uhing products and, on request, with matching accessories.
Simple
Ready for delivery, finished and ready for installation - with machined shaft ends, keyway or pre-assembly on request. No reworking necessary.
Safe
With a suitable design, the shaft fulfils the function without the strength, rigidity or vibration behaviour leading to failure.
