Custom Pins, Bushings & Shafts to Drawing

Send the drawing or sample with the material, fit, heat-treatment and inspection requirements. ROCKVANTA reviews the scope, assigns the relevant manufacturing base and prepares the production basis for quotation.

Holes, grooves, shoulders, end forms and hardened surfaces.

Bushings

OD, bore, length, fit, lubrication features and functional surfaces.

Shafts

Journals, shoulders, keyways, threads, runout references and mating interfaces.

Define the Part Before the Process

Buyers searching for a custom shaft manufacturer usually need more than a turned diameter. Journals, shoulders, keyways, cross holes, threads, grooves and end features can change the machining sequence, heat treatment and inspection plan.

Pins

For drawing- or sample-defined pins, include any specified holes, grooves, shoulders, end forms or hardened surfaces.

Bushings

Define the outside diameter, bore, length, mating parts, fit, lubrication features and functional surfaces so the bushing can be reviewed as a complete interface.

Shafts

Provide the journal diameters, shoulders, keyways, threads, holes, runout references and mating interfaces shown on the approved drawing or sample.

This page covers separate pins, bushings and shafts. Roller or idler assemblies, complete track groups and conveyor roller or pulley assemblies are covered in their own product categories.

Confirm the Interfaces and Critical Dimensions

Send the current drawing, sample or equipment reference. Mark the dimensions and surfaces that control assembly, movement, retention or wear, and include the mating component where it defines the required fit.

ROCKVANTA reviews tolerances against the drawing, material, process and inspection requirements. No universal tolerance is presented for this product family.

A Documented Connecting-Pin Series

The following values come from two documented connecting-pin series. They show an existing product and process envelope; they are not default specifications for every pin, bushing or shaft.

For a new project, the drawing and operating requirement remain the controlling inputs.

Plan Machining, Heat Treatment and Inspection From the Part Definition

Cutting, turning, milling, drilling and finishing are selected from the drawing and the required interfaces. Heat treatment, induction hardening or other surface requirements are reviewed only where specified for the part.

Before quotation, the team checks the machining sequence, heat-treatment allowance, finish-machining needs and inspection points as one production plan.

Hardness control

Test location, method and acceptance range follow the applicable part or series requirement.

Set Inspection Requirements for the Quoted Part

Dimensional checks, material documents, hardness testing and NDT can be planned where they apply to the order. The inspection scope and requested records should be stated before production or shipment.

For the documented connecting-pin control described above, hardness and magnetic-particle inspection are performed on every pin, with tensile and yield testing by batch. This coverage belongs to that connecting-pin series and is not a general promise for every product on this page.

Questions Before You Send the Drawing

Can you manufacture from a sample when no final drawing is available?

Yes, a sample can be reviewed as an input. Critical interfaces, material, heat treatment and acceptance requirements still need to be confirmed before the manufacturing scope is released.

Are the LCP series values available for every pin or shaft?

No. The published ranges belong to the two documented connecting-pin series. Other parts are reviewed against their own drawing and operating requirements.

Do you offer standard stock sizes?

This site presents project-based and drawing-led supply. Stock, MOQ and lead time are confirmed for the specific enquiry.

What inspection records can be requested?

Dimensional records, material documents, hardness results and NDT records can be discussed where applicable. State the required documents and hold points in the RFQ.

Assign Pin, Bushing and Shaft Production to the Relevant Base

ROCKVANTA owns and operates five specialized manufacturing bases. The team reviews the drawing, material, required processes, inspection and project requirements, identifies the most suitable base, and coordinates any supporting work.

The RFQ confirms the selected base, included processes, available capacity and lead time for the project.

Third-party inspection

If required, the buyer may arrange an inspector, nominate an inspection body or ask ROCKVANTA to coordinate with a suitable provider. Inspection timing, scope and cost must be agreed before the order or shipment. Inspection, reinspection and report fees are buyer-paid.
