The shaft measures 0.5 inches in diameter and 60 inches in overall length, with a tight diameter tolerance range of 0.4990 to 0.4995 inches. Surface hardness is rated at 50 to 55 Rockwell C, providing the wear resistance required for bearing-guided linear motion applications. This shafting is installed by mechanical technicians, millwrights, and industrial maintenance professionals working on linear slides, actuators, and guide systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shaft is suited for residential and commercial linear motion applications including linear bearings, bushings, and support rail assemblies. The 440-C stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments where corrosion resistance is a priority alongside mechanical hardness. The 60-inch length accommodates longer-travel linear motion setups and can be cut to length in the field as required by the application. Standard installation involves mounting within linear bearing blocks or support rails as part of a guided motion assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e440-C stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and surface hardness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50 to 55 Rockwell C hardness for wear resistance in bearing-contact applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTight diameter tolerance of 0.4990 to 0.4995 inches for precise linear bearing fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60-inch overall length supports longer-travel linear motion configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard shaft type compatible with common linear bearing and support rail systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for standard linear bearing systems requiring a 0.5-inch diameter round shaft in 440-C stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by millwrights or mechanical maintenance technicians familiar with linear motion systems. Disable all power and relieve any spring or mechanical load from the linear assembly before removing or inserting shafting. Use appropriate shaft support rails and end blocks to prevent deflection along the 60-inch span. Avoid using the shaft as a structural beam without verified support spacing for the applied load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaft Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4990 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4995 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50 to 55 Rockwell C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 440-C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaft Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: THOMSON INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: QSSS 1\/2 L 60\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"THOMSON INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67910145966386,"sku":"QSSS 1\/2 L 60","price":328.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/936323116bd138bd5acb643b0c3ae47b_99fdf1f0-eaa8-4258-9625-02d071d61087.jpg?v=1791196338","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/thomson-industries-qsss-1-2-l-60-linear-shafting","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
