Heck, in the few cases where we feel a need to use solid hex (instead of Thunderhex with the hole in the middle), we turn it down to fit in thunderhex bearings. It's just easier to slide the shafts in and out of thunderhext than it is trying to get the shaft prperly aligned with the inner race of a hex bearing.
