ID Not Honed

20MnV6 ID Not Honed Hollow Chrome Plated Rod

The 20MnV6 ID Not Honed Hollow Chrome Plated Rod is a precision-engineered hollow piston rod made from 20MnV6 steel, a material known for its excellent machinability, high tensile strength, and uniform microstructure.
This product features a hollow interior to reduce overall weight while maintaining rigidity, making it ideal for long-stroke hydraulic cylinders and mechanical systems that require both strength and efficiency.
The inner diameter (ID) is not honed, meaning it retains the original bore finish from the drilling process — suitable for non-sealing applications or when the internal surface finish is not critical.
