Airshafts

  • Do you need lighter airshafts, but still need the strength and durability of steel?

  • Do you need very small (120mm), or very large (4.5m) airshafts?

  • Do you need quicker deliveries to meet emergency breakdowns?

  • Are your own products' ship dates delayed due to airshaft delivery times?
