Designed for use on horizontal surfaces, the contact angle of the ball bearings on the rail allows these carriages to last longer than other carriages. The ball bearings operate with less friction than sleeve and roller bearing carriages to provide accurate movement and positioning at high speeds under heavy loads. However, they’re worse than sleeve bearings in dusty and wet environments. A plastic cage separates the ball bearings to minimize noise, reduce heat buildup, and eliminate ball collisions. End seals keep lubricant in and dirt out.

Flanged carriages have mounting holes on the flanges rather than the carriage body, so you can fasten loads from both the top and bottom.

For made-to-order guide rails, please specify the length of the rail (in 1 mm increments). The mounting holes will be centered along the rail.

Add a hand brake to lock carriages in position. To install, fasten the brake to the same mounting surface as your carriage.

Mounting hole plugs protect mounting fasteners from corrosion.
