Where to source 5mm D Shaft

Hello,

I’m building a robot for my university degree, and for the joints I plan to use 5mm steel shafts with a D cross sectional profile. My 3D printer uses these D cut shafts, however I cannot seem to find any supplier in the UK or EU of D cut steel shafts. I can order from China however previously the one I ordered never appeared. Any suggestions on sources?

Thanks
Chris

Hello @chrisingham05,

Welcome to RobotShop community.

Unfortunately, we only have a normal round 5mm shaft at the moment:

We also have 6mm D Shaft:

Let us know if there’s anything else we could assist you with.
