Helical shaft source

Helical shaft source

Helical shaft source

(OP)
Hi

I am looking for a 4" (100 mm) or longer helical grooved/geared shaft in the OD range from 3/16 - 1" (5 - 25mm).  

Will consider any material as I have various applications.  I want to pursue buying a stocked item primarily, I know the vendors to ask for specials and don't want that.  In my search so far I have seen some short and larger diameter gears and pinions and special made shafts but nothing in the way of standards parts.

The goal is to turn rotary motion into linear motion in the 60-90 deg to 1.25" range or there abouts.  Thanks.

RE: Helical shaft source

Here is one provider of such an item.  In you size you might want to look a fishing reel worm and pawl system.
