Cutting Linear Motion Shaft Without Distorttion
If it is precision ground, it is probably hardened. In which case your options are limited.You could keep it cool with a water
spray during the cutting process.

Not sure if its even an issue, but I was wondering if I cut a 1" precision linear shaft with something like a chop saw if I
would distort and ruin a portion of it from the heat. If in doubt use the hacksaw I suppose.
I need two 20" pieces, but the best price I found was for a single 63" piece. I suppose I could also just cut them a little bit
long and let them stick out on the open end.
