Precision Brand 1/2" Precision Shafting, 36" Length Review

I used it to make a replacement worm gear shaft for a 4x7 horizontal bandsaw.

Although the specifications here give you precious little useful information the round behaves like cold rolled steel.

The diameter stepped cleanly on a 1,500 rpm lathe with no noticeable tear-out.

A broached keyway came out with clean sharp edges.

Die threading took a bit of muscle, but the resulting threads were smooth and accurate.

I did not measure straightness. The 3 foot long shaft showed no memorable signs of whipping in the lathe.

I did not measure roundness but there was no noticable eccentricity when the lathe tool first touched the shaft. I'd feel quite safe guessing that my piece was round to within a thousandth of an inch.

The shaft arrived in a flimsy cardboard tube. While it didn't happen to my shipment I could see where violent handling could knock out an end cap to let the shaft slither out of the shipping tube. Frankly, all the cardboard tube did was provide a place for the shipping label and keep the shaft from being scratched (but not bent).

Also on the negative side is the price, but you already knew that.
