Product Overview
Churro is a versatile extruded aluminum hex profile. The outside of this part is a 1/2 in. hex with small concave dimples which act as weight savings. There is an inside hole is sized at 0.2 in. in order to fit 1/4-20 thread forming screws. No tapping or threading is needed, as long as a thread forming screw is used. The outside hex size fits a 1/2 in. wrench or socket. You can use am-1182 to secure components to churro. Longer thread forming screws are available if you need to attach larger items to churro.
The 3-foot churro, our most popular length and the best value on shipping, is available anodized in red, blue, purple, gold and black to dress up your robot. Anodized finish is hardy and doesn't flake off or add thickness like paint, but it is possible for a scratch to expose the bare metal beneath. Take basic precautions in your shop like watching for sharp tools or overtightening this churro in a vise.

IS SNACK
This thick fritter of fried aluminum is quite scrumptious; could use some more sugar tho :/
-
Not a snack
But it’s a delightful structural thing that works great
-
IS EDIBLE
Could use the Cinnamon and Sugar tho. If you say it's inedible, you're not trying hard enough. (AndyMark response: we appreciate our customers' humor!)
-
Not Edible
This product is misleading, IT IS NOT EDIBLE!!!!!!!! (AndyMark response: Correct, it's made from aluminum.)
-
Great Product
This stuff is so versatile. We use it as standoffs, light axles, support structure, prototyping material, and more. It's easy to tap with a thread forming screw. It comes in awesome colors (though we buy the long silver ones and get them custom anodized on our own). We make sure to always have extra Churro around the shop.

Good Stuff!
I've used this stuff as spacers, light-duty hex shaft, and to fill/guide in some "impossible" situations requiring 120 degree angles, and even as a structural elements in Christmas decorations, and it's never failed to satisfy. Also, I find it pleasing that it's available in all the heraldic colors and metals.

Strong and Light Weight...
Churro is AMAZING for robots, but I thought I was ordering the *other* churro, but apparently this was the aluminum churro which doesn't taste as good as the other stuff ;)

There should be two of these with each pair of gearboxes as standard equipment.
