These stainless steel shaft couplers allow you to couple two size shafts together. They can be used for connecting motor shafts to drive shafts, or two different-sized shafts. These shaft couplers have a length of 0.75”, a outer diameter of 0.42”, and couple 1/4” to 6mm shafts.
Actobotics is a robotics building system based around extruded aluminum channels, gears, precision shafts, and ball bearings. Thanks to the two standardized hole patterns, nearly all Actobotics components can be intuitively connected together. The wide range of components makes building complex electromechanical prototypes or finished projects a reality.

just what i ordered
everything fit just as advertised could not be happier
Well designed and constructed.
This coupler is the perfect accessory for connecting a 6mm shaft to a 1/4" shaft. Made from stainless steel is a bonus for anti-corrosion. It fits both shafts well and is easy to tighten and secure. Definitely recommended.
Does this come with the set screws? w1bwx's comment suggests that it doesn't, but was that just an error? If not, has it changed since 10 months ago?
So what did you do? I planned to order the coupler but without set screws its worthless.
No set screws included! Arrrrgghh!
