Critical figures, with their application boundaries made clear
Use these figures for early technical alignment. Final requirements are locked by diameter, length, material condition and application before order placement.

04≈ 3 mmtypical induction-hardened case capability
These figures describe Yixin's process capability, not unconditional default values for every size or order. Dimensions, tolerances, chrome thickness, case depth, hardness, inspection methods and acceptance criteria must be confirmed against the drawing and application before order placement.
PRODUCTS
Start with material condition and surface treatment
Choose between soft shaft, induction-hardened shaft, ground bar and Q&T series, then confirm tolerance, chrome, hardness and downstream machining.

View selection notesSOFT OR HARDENED?
Choose by machining needs and surface wear requirements — not by name alone
Chrome-plated soft shaft
No surface induction hardening, leaving more flexibility for turning, milling or drilling after supply.
Induction-hardened chrome shaft
Induction hardened before chrome plating for applications where surface wear resistance and guidance stability matter more.

Clear answers to the questions buyers ask first
Use these answers for early screening. Final technical requirements remain subject to the confirmed drawing, specification and order.
01How do I choose between a soft and hardened chrome shaft?
A soft shaft has no surface induction hardening and leaves more flexibility for downstream machining. A hardened shaft is induction hardened before chrome plating for greater surface wear resistance and guidance stability. Final selection depends on the application and drawing.
02Does the 0.02 mm tolerance-band capability apply to every size?
No. It is a process capability, not a universal default. Feasibility depends on diameter, length, material condition, process route and measurement method.
03Are 10 μm+ chrome per side and HV800+ default specifications?
No. They are capability figures. Chrome thickness, hardness, test location and acceptance method must be agreed before quotation and order placement.
04What information should an RFQ include?
Include product type, material or reference grade, diameter, length, quantity, tolerance, surface treatment, application and contact details. Attach a drawing where available.
