Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
Until it stops.
Repeated cleaning puts shafting to the test. When corrosion enters the picture, choosing the right material and surface for the actual environment matters.
Specify for the environment.
A washdown system is more than a shaft diameter. The right discussion begins with what touches the shaft, how often it happens, and what the bearing system needs.
What chemicals, concentration, temperature, and rinse cycle will the shaft see?
What are the load, travel, bearing interface, and required shaft geometry?
Which stainless grade or surface option fits the complete set of conditions?
Bring SKAMAR the challenge.
SKAMAR supplies precision linear shafting and custom machining. Its team can review material, hardness, dimensions, and finishing requirements with your application in mind.
What does your shafting have to survive?
Tell SKAMAR about your washdown process and application. Start with the details you know; their team can help with the rest.
