Dienes Air Shafts Provide Simplicity to Your Operation
Dienes has over 20 years of experience in the shaft industry, offering competitively priced products and instock parts ready to ship.
The Multiple Bladder Air Shaft is the most popular, allowing for a variety of gripping ledges to handle all types of applications. The toughest in rewinding is the Differential Rewinding Air Shaft which provides extra-high torque capacity. Our most robust is the Lug Shaft. Its rugged design is available in three body materials making it suitable for heavy loads, high speeds, and light applications. Our engineers are ready to support you and find the right solution for all of your shaft application needs.
