How we work on a shaft
Bring in the shaft, or what is left of it
We measure what you have, work out what it needs to be, and tell you whether it is a repair or a remake before we start.
- 1
Measure it
The worn shaft, the housing it runs in, or the drawing if you have one.
- 2
Repair or remake
A worn journal can often be machined and sleeved. A cracked or badly worn shaft is remade.
- 3
Fit and check
Sizes checked against the drawing or the mating part before it leaves the workshop.
Common questions
Before you send the job
If your question is not here, call Boris. A two-minute conversation usually sorts it out.
Do you need a drawing?
No. The old shaft or the part it fits into is enough to start. A sketch with a few sizes helps.
Can you match a shaft that is no longer made?
Yes. We work from the worn original or a sample and make a new one to suit the existing equipment.
Can you do more than one?
Yes. We do single shafts and batch and production runs of shafts.
