3/8" to 1/2"

[SeanFitz]

So our team is looking at buying an AndyMark Bevel Box (as shown herehttp://www.andymark.com/product-p/am-2622.htm).

The problem we are having is that everything we will be putting on this shaft only comes in 1/2" hex. Does anyone know of a part we can buy that will adapt a 3/8" hex shaft to 1/2" hex, or are we going to need to make our own custom part.

Looks like this would cover you.

You can also see that the shaft coming out of the gearbox is tapped (probably 1/4-20 or 10-32). You can drill and tap the same hole into a piece of your 1/2" hex shaft and then connect them with a piece of all thread (ready rod). If you have a metal lathe and someone who knows how to use it, it is quite easy. We did this to extend the shafts on our VexPro VersaPlanetary gearboxes.
