Replacement Spindle for Vintage Hardware
The Tuff Stuff 4425 is a straight steel spindle measuring 9/32 inch square by 5 inches long with 20 threads per inch on both ends and an unthreaded centre section. It is supplied in a box with a satin chrome finish and keyed-different configuration for individual lock operation.
Suitable for restoration projects
This spindle fits Corbin Russwin, Yale, Marks, Norwalk, National, Baldwin and Tuff Stuff vintage door knobs that accept a 9/32 inch square shaft. Installers working with modern tubular latch mechanisms or metric-dimension hardware will find the dimensions incompatible and should select a different part.
Critical dimension is the 9/32 inch square shaft
The square cross-section and 20 TPI threading determine whether the spindle engages the lock hub and secures the knob roses correctly. Verify that the existing hardware requires this exact square size and thread pitch before purchasing.

Questions about this item
How much heat or noise does the 4425 spindle generate during continuous daily use?
The solid steel spindle has no moving parts of its own and produces no measurable heat or noise; any warmth or sound comes from the lock mechanism it operates.
What existing door hardware is required for the 9/32" square 20 TPI spindle to function?
You need a mortise lock or tubular latch with a matching 9/32" square hub and 20 threads-per-inch threaded bosses on both sides of the door.
Will the 5" long straight spindle fit vintage Corbin Russwin or Yale knob sets I want to keep?
Yes — the 4425 is listed as a direct replacement for Corbin Russwin, Yale, Marks, Norwalk, National, Baldwin and most vintage knobs using the same 9/32" square 20 TPI specification.
