V-Wheel Roller Bearings - V-Guide Series

V-Wheels for steel linear rail systems include roller bearings in shielded carbon steel (VW), permanently sealed and lubricated carbon steel (VWS), and stainless steel (VWSS). Each variant enhances performance with a precision dual row angular contact design on compatible linear rails. These roller bearings are constructed from 52100 bearing steel or 420 stainless steel, with options for 304 stainless steel and nitrile rubber seals. Available in four standard outer diameter sizes—20, 30, 45, and 60 mm—these V-Wheels can also be fitted with concentric or eccentric bushings for added versatility.
