Carbon steel or stainless steel v-groove linear rails to match the durable V-Guide steel roller bearing V-Wheels, made to industry standard sizes 1-4. The manufacturing process ensures low-friction movement, stability and longevity. V-groove systems are great for factory floors because they are naturally more tolerant of misalignment.
Linear Rail Characteristics
The steel V-Guide Linear Rails are built to complement standard sized v-wheels. Designed with precision-ground surfaces, these rails provide low-friction movement. Key features include:
- Induction-hardened surfaces for extended durability
- Available in 1045 carbon steel or 400-series stainless steel
- Optional black oxide finish for corrosion resistance
- Cut to custom lengths up to 5,486.4 mm (216")
- Integrated alignment shoulder for easy installation
Roller Bearing Wheel Sizes and Load Capacities
The V-Guide Roller Bearing Wheel system offers four distinct sizes, each designed to meet specific load and application needs. The wheels feature precision-ground dual-row bearings, ensuring optimal performance under high radial and axial loads.Linear Rails: Material and Design Features
