    Spin Take .5 in Hex

    Our SpinTake has three bore options, making it a viable part for both FRC and FTC! This product is ideal as an intake "wheel" for picking up game pieces of varying shapes. Made from natural rubber, the SpinTake is flexible, yet firm. Its unique shape also allows it to be oriented to stay within the robot frame perimeter initially but can reach outside just by spinning. These work in a similar fashion to surgical tubing fingers on an axle, but are easier to implement and provide a cleaner look with more consistent results. 

    The Hex Bore options are designed to be an interference fit on their associated Hex Shafts. This means it will be a tight press to install but will resist slipping under load.

    Entrapption Star .5 Inch Hex Shaft

    #am-0619a
    $15.60
    (26 In stock)

    Our Entrapption Stars have two bore options, making them viable parts for both FRC and FTC! This product is frequently used as intake wheels for picking up game pieces. Made from silicone, they are flexible, yet firm, allowing for the ability to pick up objects of irregular shape.

    The 1/2 in. Hex Bore option is designed to be an interference fit on any 0.5 in. Hex Shaft.  This means the bore is actually 0.425 in. and it will be a tight press on, but keep the entrapption star from rotating.

    2" Compliant Wheel, 1/2 inch Hex, 60 Durometer Black

    #am-3462_black
    $8.00

    Compliant wheels are not intended for moving robots, but moving objects. Compliant wheels give way to allow rigid objects to be manipulated easily. A line of multiple wheels on a driven hex shaft creates a very effective roller that ignores variations in the objects being driven. This makes for high-performance intakes and internal conveyors. The wheels are sized for an interference fit and tend to stay in place on a shaft, though a shaft collar may be used to make absolutely sure the wheels stay clear of other mechanisms or maintain consistent spacing.

     

    The hex bore versions of this wheel are undersized, and are intended to be an interference fit on their respective hex shafts. This interference fit allows for effective torque transfer from the hex shaft to the wheel, as well as allowing the wheel to remain in place along the shaft without the need for spacers or collar clamps:

     

    Compliant Wheel Sizing

     

    Different durometer ratings give each wheel unique characteristics. Green wheels (35A durometer) are the softest and most compliant around objects, while orange (40A), maroon (45A), and blue (50A) wheels are increasingly firm. The increased firmness also allows the latter wheels to carry a higher RPM rating. Check out the downloads tab for a chart showing wheels and their maximum RPM.

    Hex Molded Spacers, 1/2 Hex Bore, 1 inch length

    #am-3948-1000
    $1.25

    Whether you are building an elite custom drivetrain or a championship manipulator, you need your components to stay where they're supposed to. These lightweight spacers come in 3/8", 1/2", and 5 mm hex bores to accommodate the most common shaft types They can also be used on round shafts and bolts (5mm is great for #10 hardware!). If you need to space a lot grab some 1" spacers. If you need ultimate precision pick up some 0.063" spacers. Not sure which spacers you need? Keep a handful of all six sizes in your shop and never go hungry for spacers again! 

     

    These spacers are molded in black polycarbonate, a tough, crack resistant material that FIRST teams are familiar with. These spacers should resist stress cracking. If polycarbonate isn't rugged enough for your high load application or you need custom length spacers, check out our Aluminum Hex Spacer Extrusion.

    1 in. Bearing Side Mount Gusset

    #am-4168
    $5.00

    We are pleased to offer these new gussets that are suitable for 1" based building systems. These thoughtfully designed gussets are made from 1/8" thick 6061-T6 aluminum, which is a much stronger material than other 0.09" 5052 gussets. All of these framing gussets feature a 1" linear hole pattern, with holes suitable for either #10 screws or 3/16" rivets.

     

    On all of the angle gussets, a generous radius was used on the inside corner for maximum strength. The various angle gussets, along with the quad and tee gusset are used together to create structures and sub-assemblies for your robot. Our bearing and Sport gussets are perfect building blocks to create a massive variety of mechanisms and assemblies to suit your needs.
