Hexagon Shafts – RDM Parts for Positive Drive and High-Torque Power Transmission

RDM Parts offers "Hexagon shafts", characterized by their hexagonal cross-section. These shafts are crucial components in agricultural machinery, primarily used for transmitting significant torque and providing a positive, slip-free drive without the need for keys or splines in mating components. The hexagonal profile allows for excellent power transfer and is particularly effective in applications where high torque loads are encountered, or where frequent assembly/disassembly is required without compromising rotational integrity. Hexagon shafts are commonly found in implements such as feeder wagons, mixer wagons, certain types of cultivators, and rollers where components need to be driven positively along the shaft's length. Our hexagon shafts are manufactured from high-strength steel, often cold-drawn or hot-rolled and sometimes heat-treated, to ensure exceptional torsional strength, bending resistance, and durability against wear and fatigue. They are available in various side dimensions (e.g., 20mm, 25mm, 30mm across flats) and lengths to suit diverse machinery designs and load requirements. RDM Parts offers hexagon shafts that are precisely manufactured to industry standards, ensuring compatibility with hexagonal bore bearings, couplings, and other driven components. Investing in high-quality hexagon shafts from RDM Parts ensures robust and reliable power transmission, minimizes slippage, and contributes to the efficient and long-lasting performance of your agricultural machinery. The robust solution for high-torque applications.
