The Multiquip 38163 ACME Rod 3/4-6 Thread is a genuine OEM replacement component designed for the SP118 series flat saw. Sourced directly from Multiquip, this rod matches the exact thread specification — 3/4-6 ACME — required for correct fit and function within the saw assembly. If you are servicing or rebuilding an SP118 flat saw, verifying the correct 38163 is essential, and 38163 is the factory-designated replacement for this application.
Key Features
- OEM-Spec Thread Form: — Machined to the 3/4-6 ACME thread profile required by the SP118, ensuring correct engagement and load-bearing performance in service.
- Direct Replacement Fit: — Designed to install in place of the original rod without rework or modification to the saw's existing hardware.
- SP118 Flat Saw Compatibility: — Confirmed fitment for the Multiquip SP118 Street Pro Series flat saw, so you can order with confidence.
- Maintains Drive and Adjustment Integrity: — A worn or damaged ACME rod affects depth adjustment and blade positioning accuracy; replacing it restores precise control over cut depth.
- Genuine Multiquip OEM Part: — Backed by Multiquip's OEM quality standards, this rod is manufactured to the same specification as the part that left the factory, giving you a like-for-like replacement.
An ACME rod is a threaded shaft that uses the trapezoidal ACME thread form, which is engineered for power transmission and linear movement rather than fastening. In a flat saw like the SP118, this rod is typically used in a depth adjustment or blade height mechanism, converting rotational input into controlled vertical movement of the blade assembly. When the rod wears, becomes damaged, or the thread strips, the operator loses the ability to set and hold accurate cut depth, which directly affects cut quality and can introduce unsafe blade behavior during operation.
