This is a pneumatic meter-out flow control valve. The port is a 1/8" NPT male thread, and 1/4" diameter tube can be pressed in to the push-to-connect fitting.
 

Meter-out allows for the flow to be controlled in one direction, while the opposite flow is not restricted.

Specifications

• Hex Width: 7/16 in.
• Material: Rotating thermoplastic (PBT) body, nickel-plated brass threads, stainless steel tube griping claws, and pre-applied Teflon thread sealant
• Port(s): 1/8 in. NPT male with pre-applied Teflon thread sealant

This adapter converts an 8 mm keyed shaft to 1/2 in. hex. The keyway is 2 mm wide. This allows you to adapt the output of a motor or gearbox like the CIM Motor (am-0255) to any of our hubs or wheels with a 1/2 in. hex bore. You'll need a 2 mm machine key (am-1121) to complete the assembly and transmit torque from the motor. 

This adapter is no longer available in the 0.75 in. length.

Specifications

• Bore: 8 mm Round
• Keyway Width: 2 mm
• Length: 0.5 in., 1 in.
• Material: Steel
• Weight: 0.03 lbs
• Width: 0.497 - 0.499 in.

Machine Key, steel. Used in 2.5" CIM Motor shafts. 

Specifications:

• Width: 2mm (0.078 inch)
• Length: 10mm (0.394 inch)
• Weight: 0.0008 pounds

Compliant wheels are not intended for moving robots, but moving objects. Compliant wheels give way to allow rigid objects to be manipulated easily. A line of multiple wheels on a driven hex axle creates a very effective roller that ignores variations in the objects being driven. This makes for high-performance intakes and internal conveyors.

Different durometer ratings give each wheel unique characteristics. Green wheels (35A durometer) are the softest and most compliant around objects, while orange (40A), maroon (45A), blue (50A), and black (60A) wheels are increasingly firm. The increased firmness also allows the latter wheels to carry a higher RPM rating. Check out the downloads tab for a chart showing wheels and their maximum RPM. 

Please note maroon wheels are only intended for use in FTC. If more powerful motors are used to drive it the spokes may fail.

The inside black portion of this wheel is made from molded polycarbonate plastic. The outer tread is TPU (Thermoplastic PolyUrethane). This robust but lightweight wheel provides good traction on carpet and soft tiles. Stealth wheels are the perfect drive wheel for smaller (<50 lb.) robots, or for intakes and other auxiliary robot mechanisms. These wheels are available in a variety of bores and durometers. 4 in. Stealth Wheels feature a 6 bolt pattern on a 1.875 in. bolt circle for mounting sprockets, hubs, and gears. Nub Bore Stealth Wheels feature a 4 bolt pattern on a 16 mm bolt circle found in most FIRST Tech Challenge building systems. The lower the durometer the softer the wheel is, this makes it wear away faster, but also makes it more grippy.

Product Usage:
Many thread locking materials are not compatible with polycarbonate and can eat away at the plastic. Be sure to check which adhesives are okay to use with this product.
