Miniature Spline Shafts do not require external lubrication.

Featuring .125 in. OD, SS 2 Spline Shaft series is designed for light- to moderate-load applications where low friction and extended life are critical considerations. Assembly consists of solid steel or aluminum spline shaft, treated with low-friction Kerkote-® TFE coating, coupled with plain or thread-mount bushings. To adapt to any required format, custom machining of bushing and spline shaft...

Mechanical Power Transmission

Linear Actuator features electromechanical operation.

Designed to accept NEMA size 17, 23, and 34 motors, rod-type Kerk Linear Actuator offers alternative to pneumatic actuators. It uses KerkoteÂ-® TFE coating and KerkiteÂ-® composite polymers in combination with KerkÂ-® precision lead screws. Ability to move actuator to any position and vary speeds within stroke allows for adjustability to accommodate various sizes, shapes, and package...

Lead Screws suit high load motion control applications.

Eliminating drag and wear associated with high pre-load forces, VHD Series uses Axial Take-Up Mechanism, creating stiff spacer, which continually expands to accommodate wear that occurs during use. Leads are available from .050-3.6 in. with lengths up to 160 in. Self-lubricating, anti-backlash assemblies are 303 stainless steel, with custom KerkoteÂ-® TFE extended life coating optional. They...
