Core Product Lines and Technical Advantages
As a specialized connection shaft manufacturer, we’ve developed unique processing techniques for our flagship products. Our metal shovel components, produced through one-piece stretching and bending, eliminate welding seams that could compromise structural integrity. The integrated design with reinforced ribs and smooth curved surfaces ensures optimal material flow during operation while reducing secondary processing requirements for clients.
The brass connecting rods exemplify our precision machining capabilities. Manufactured from high-conductivity brass, these components feature smooth surfaces with Ra values below 0.8μm and dimensional accuracy within ±0.02mm. The one-piece molded design ensures consistent electrical conductivity while the optional plating treatments (tin, zinc, nickel) enhance corrosion resistance for different operating environments.
Our knurled zinc-plated sleeves demonstrate specialized non-standard processing capabilities. The middle knurling pattern increases friction by 40% compared to smooth surfaces, preventing loosening during vibration. The zinc plating provides 500+ hours of salt spray resistance, making these components ideal for outdoor equipment and marine applications. We can customize inner diameters from 6-50mm with wall thickness options from 0.5-5mm to meet specific design requirements.
