By combining strict adherence to the ANSI B92.1 standard, precision Grade 6h tolerance, and a durable nitriding surface treatment, we deliver a shaft that offers exceptional wear resistance, fatigue strength, and dimensional accuracy for long service life in heavy-duty applications. Whether for gearboxes, machine tools, or automated assembly lines, this spline shaft ensures reliable performance and seamless integration.
Product Features & Benefits
- ANSI B92.1 Compliance – Each shaft is manufactured in full compliance with the ANSI B92.1 standard for involute splines, ensuring interchangeability and compatibility with mating components.
- Grade 6h Precision Tolerance – The tight tolerance (Grade 6h) guarantees accurate tooth profile and spacing, reducing backlash and vibration, and improving overall transmission efficiency.
- Surface Nitriding Treatment – A controlled gas or plasma nitriding process creates a hardened case (HV 500–700) while maintaining a tough core. This significantly enhances wear resistance, anti-galling properties, and fatigue life.
- High-Strength Alloy Steel – Made from premium alloy steels such as 40Cr, 42CrMo, or 20CrMnTi, offering excellent tensile strength and toughness for demanding industrial environments.
- Customizable Dimensions – We offer flexible shaft lengths, diameters, and keyway configurations to suit your specific application requirements (length up to 3000 mm).
- Advanced Manufacturing – CNC hobbing and gear grinding processes ensure precise tooth geometry and surface finish. Each shaft undergoes 100% dimensional inspection and hardness testing.
- Versatile Applications – Ideal for gearboxes, machine tools, agricultural machinery, construction equipment, and any industrial drive system requiring reliable torque transmission.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What does “Grade 6h” mean for a spline shaft?
A: Grade 6h refers to the tolerance class of the spline tooth profile as defined by ANSI B92.1. It indicates a tight fit with minimal clearance, which helps reduce backlash and improve positioning accuracy in high-precision drives. -
Q: Is the surface nitriding treatment applied to the entire shaft?
A: Typically, the nitriding is applied to the entire shaft surface, but selective masking can be arranged if certain areas need to remain machinable or unhardened. Please specify your requirements when ordering. -
Q: Can you produce spline shafts with different tooth counts or modules?
A: Yes. We produce custom tooth counts (Z) from 6 to 60 and modules (M) from 1.0 to 8.0, as long as they fall within the ANSI B92.1 standard. Non-standard profiles are also possible upon request. -
Q: What materials do you recommend for high-torque applications?
A: For high torque and shock loads, we suggest 42CrMo or 20CrMnTi alloy steel. For cost-sensitive applications, 40Cr is a good choice. Our engineering team can recommend the optimal material based on your working conditions. -
Q: Do you provide a hardness report or dimensional certificate?
A: Absolutely. We offer a comprehensive inspection report including hardness values, case depth, tooth profile measurements, and dimensional conformity for every batch. Certificates are available upon request. -
Q: What is the typical lead time for a custom spline shaft?
A: Standard custom orders usually take 15–20 working days after drawing approval. Rush orders may be accommodated depending on current production capacity. -
Q: How do you ensure the nitriding layer is uniform and free from defects?
A: We use advanced programmable nitriding furnaces with precise temperature and atmosphere control. Each batch is tested for surface hardness and case depth, and we perform microstructural analysis as needed. -
Q: Can you help with the design of a spline shaft if I only have performance requirements?
A: Yes. Our engineers can design the spline geometry according to ANSI B92.1 based on your torque, speed, and space constraints. Just share your application details and we will propose a tailored solution.
