Stud, M8x30

The black oxide finish on these M8x30 studs is holding up great against the occasional coolant splash, and the unthreaded middle section makes installation a breeze. I've got my lathe chuck secured with zero wobble now. Exactly what I needed for the Big Dog 7x14.

Fit perfectly on my Big Dog 7x14 lathe to secure the 100 mm chuck—both threaded ends caught cleanly and the unthreaded middle made alignment a breeze. Exactly the M8x30 I needed, no fuss.

The black oxide finish is holding up well after a few weeks of daily use swapping chucks on my 7x14 lathe. Threads are clean on both ends, though the un-threaded middle section feels a bit longer than strictly necessary for alignment.
