go ahead
I went on Amazon to order shafts and I got a case hardened steel can you use stainless steel can you use titanium does it matter do you know if itās able to be magnetized
Your common austenitic stainless steels (304, 316) are generally going to be significantly weaker than alloy steel. However Flipsky shafts are 420 hardened stainless steel. 420 is a martensitic alloy with 3x the tensile strength of 304 and 316 when hardened. In summary, the specific steel choice is really really important.
Titaniumās main advantage is light weight, at a significant cost. Itās not really ideal for a rotary shaft in this use case.
Just guessing here, but If your shaft was strongly magnetized I imagine it would screw with your motor function, as BLDC motors operate by creating magnetic fields through electrical current.
Ki ordeerdd Chrome alley case harden steel from Amazon 10 mm x 300 mm Ki ordeerdd Chrome alley case harden steel from Amazon 10 mm x 300 mm pieces Iām gonna try and put the link up here ReliaBot 10mm x 350mm (.3937 x 13.78 inches) Case Hardened Chrome Plated Linear Motion Rod Shaft Guide Metric h8 Tolerance https://a.co/d/ane0qD4
Thatās a guiding rail/rod
Donāt think itās gonna have the required tolerances
It might actually be fine
Diameter 10mm, tolerance -0.005mm to -0.03mm ( 9.995mm - 9.97mm)
Thereās no straightness tolerance, but on something this short itāll probably work.
No idea about the material strength, but not the worst choice.
Ok well Iām give that. A shot then lol can any of u guys outa link out for the right stuff by chance
