Linear Ball Slides

Linear ball slides, also known as ball slides, motion slides and linear motion slides, are lightweight and compact linear guide units that operate with an extremely low sliding resistance. Linear ball slides offer exceptional straight line accuracy and high precision performance. Linear ball slides are capable of working in high-speed applications and have low friction and low inertia benefits. Linear ball slides to be used in vertical applications of very high speeds or involving loads that are cantilevered typically feature anti-creep technology. A one-piece ball retainer is used to cleverly maintain the position and alignment of its ball bearing retainer. Linear ball slides are usually available with both metric and inch holes. With a great variety of configurations available, linear ball slides are extremely versatile for a wide variety of applications in various industries, wherever straight line accuracy and precision is called for.
