Enter the shaft diameter, the shaft length (distance from the end of the shaft to the load-bearing surface), and the load applied to the end of the shaft. The program will calculate the deflection (at the shaft tip) due to the weight of the shaft + the applied load.

Solid Stainless Steel Shaft

RESULTS
DEFLECTION DUE TO WEIGHT OF SHAFT FOR SOLID STAINLESS STEEL SHAFTS
Fixed at one end, even load
SHAFT DIAMETER (in inches)
SHAFT WEIGHT (in pounds)
EXTENDED LENGTH (in inches)
MAXIMUM DEFLECTION, AT END (in inches)
TOTAL DEFLECTION (SOLID SHAFT ONLY)
(Load + Weight of Shaft Deflection)
