Have you thought about using drill blanks for your pinion wires? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk |

If your pinion is small enough that the shank works; I don't know how much you need. https://www.mcmaster.com/2900a219 will get you a hardened and ground blank. I don't see anything longer, though. Sorry! |

Drill blanks are available here https://www.drill-service.co.uk/products/drills/drill-blanks/blk-hss-drill-blanks/ Another alternative and useful source of small size quality steel is sewing machine needles Mike |
