The Durastar 3/8-24" OD x 3" Length Plain Axle is a premium axle solution engineered for reliability and seamless integration with Durastar’s 04 Series casters. Designed with precision threading and durable construction, this axle ensures a secure and stable fit across a wide range of light to medium-duty caster applications.
With a choice between a standard plain nut or a high-performance nylon insert nut, users can select the configuration that best suits their needs—whether for simple assemblies or vibration-sensitive environments requiring extra locking power.
This finely machined axle features a 3/8"-24 outer diameter and a precise 3-inch length, delivering consistent thread engagement and alignment. Crafted from high-strength steel, it stands up to wear, stress, and repeated use in professional environments. Its refined design not only reduces downtime during replacements but also minimizes operator error during installation.
