| Rod Stock Policy: In order to include long skinny products at our very favorable shipping rates: All USA orders that contain rod-stock items need to contain at least 6 rods. Rod stock is anything over 30". This would include Music Wire, Carbon Rods of any kind, larger Pushrod kits, brass or aluminum rods and anything else of that nature. Thinner items like carbon strips .5mm thick, sub 1mm diameter carbon rods and music wire .020 or thinner ordered in quantities less than 6 rods total will be shipped coiled. Unless otherwise stated, all carbon rod stock is pull-truded construction grade. The resin is heat cured as the fibers are pulled through a die of the proper shape. Sizes are approximate usually within 5%.
All pushrods are found here. Select by size sub category below or in left column under "Pushrods".

1mm (.039) Pushrods for RC ModelsPushrods transmit motion from a servo horn to a control surface, translating servo travel into elevator, rudder, or aileron deflection. The 1mm (.039) size sits at the lighter end of the range, where builders of small and lightweight airplanes want a rod that is stiff enough to resist flexing while adding very little weight toward the tail. Where This Size FitsA .039 inch diameter pushrod is commonly chosen for park flyers, indoor models, and other small aircraft whose control loads are modest. Matching pushrod diameter to the size of the model helps avoid unwanted flex, which can introduce slop and blur an otherwise crisp control response. Because this section works with a narrow diameter, it is worth planning the length you need and how the rod will connect to clevises or connectors at each end before you build the linkage. A pushrod that is too long or poorly supported can bow under load and rob you of throw at the surface. This category covers pushrods in the 1mm (.039) size. Check the listings below for current options, or explore the broader pushrod categories for other diameters and lengths. |
