5/8" Shaft for the Dustin 2 Motor

These shafts, specially designed for use in the Dustin 2 motor, are 5/8", 1018 steel shafts are 6 inches long and come standard with a 3/16" keyway the full length. You may customize the shaft to be longer than you need for only $1 per extra inch over the standard 6".

The end of the shaft has been machined to mate perfectly inside the new gearbox of the Dustin 2 motor. (If you are not using the Dustin 2 motor, you will need to convert your existing DeWALT with the Gear Box conversion kit)

Note when ordering your 5/8" shaft, the first 1.25" of the shaft will be inside the front of the Dustin 2 motor, so you might want to order a slightly longer shaft than usual.


 

DeWalt Shaft Spindle for 24V & 18V motors

So you've got the DeWalt gearboxes , but you've been pulling your hair out trying to get a shaft to work for them. You COULD upgrade the 24V transmission with the Dustin 2 kit, but if you're on a budget and like to try to work out your own unique solution, we offer these shaft spindle assemblies, made by DeWalt specifically for the 24V Hammerdrills. A version for the 18V gearboxes is available as well.

This unique shaft spindle has the X-shaped spline on one end that fits directly into the DeWalt Gearbox, and has a spring-loaded roller bearing already attached, the opposite end is threaded outside as well as reverse-threaded inside, providing multiple options for attaching your drive system. You could cut off the parts you don't need and use just the plain shaft, or come up with your own custom mounting solution.
