V-Guide Wheels for Steel Linear Rail Systems

V-Guide Wheels are steel roller bearings that are essential components for steel linear rail systems, known for their precision, durability, and flexibility. These steel wheels utilize a dual-row angular contact bearing design that ensures smooth, accurate movement along rails or shafts. Their versatility makes them ideal for use in automation, robotics, industrial machinery, and more. Built to withstand high radial and axial loads, V-Guide Wheels offer efficient, low-friction movement, making them critical for modern linear motion solutions.

Wheel Sizes and Specifications

The V-Guide Wheels are available in multiple configurations to meet a variety of performance needs. Standard, sealed, and stainless steel-sealed versions are available in four sizes.
