**Visual Description**
This is a splined live tool spindle shaft. The main barrel is smooth and metallic. One end tapers to a splined coupling. The splines are protected by clear plastic wrapping. The piece sits in a box on packaging paper.
**Condition Observations**
Surface shows minor handling marks and light wear. No obvious fractures or heavy corrosion are visible. The splines appear intact under the plastic. The overall finish looks consistent with a used but serviceable spindle.
**What This Part Is and Why It Matters**
This item is a live-tool style spindle shaft used in CNC tooling systems. The splined end transfers torque to or from a mating component. Proper spindle function affects accuracy and surface finish. Worn splines or bearings reduce tool life and cut quality.
