The uxcell Round Rod Bar Motion Axle is designed for hobbyists, engineers, and DIY enthusiasts who require precision components for mechanical transmission and small-scale construction projects. These stainless steel rods offer exceptional structural integrity for model making and crafting, though users should note that the 2mm diameter limits their use to lighter load applications.

These 2mm rods are generally too thin for 3D printer motion rails, which typically require 8mm or larger rods for structural stability.
A rotary tool with a reinforced cutoff wheel or a fine-tooth hacksaw works best for clean, precise edges.
These are solid stainless steel rods for maximum mechanical strength.
Yes, they are made of stainless steel and can be joined using TIG welding, though caution is required to prevent warping due to the small diameter.
No, this set includes only the 10 stainless steel rods.
Verify that your component is designed for a 2mm metric shaft; use digital calipers to check for burrs at the cut site.
Although stainless steel is durable, clean with a fine-grit abrasive pad and apply a thin layer of machine oil to protect the finish.
Use a specialized metal cutting blade or abrasive wheel. Avoid heavy-duty bolt cutters, which can deform the round profile of the rod.
To integrate these rods into your project, ensure your mounting points—such as 3D-printed chassis holes or pre-bought bearings—are sized for a 2mm diameter shaft to avoid wobble. When cutting, always wear safety goggles and secure the rod in a vise to prevent slippage.
To maintain the longevity of the rods, wipe them down with a light machine oil after handling to prevent fingerprints and potential moisture buildup. If the rods are used in a high-friction environment, applying a small amount of synthetic lubricant will enhance rotation and reduce wear on both the axle and the housing.
