A handle on the side of the carriage locks the carriage in place. Carriages have a wide base for stabilizing moment (twisting) and off-center loads better than standard sleeve bearing carriages. Use them in areas where multiple carriages or rails won't fit. The sleeve bearings allow them to outperform ball bearings in wet, dirty, and high-vibration environments. Mount in any orientation without affecting load capacity.

Aluminum carriages conduct and dissipate the heat produced by friction, protecting your machinery. They are more corrosion resistant than zinc carriages.

Zinc carriages are mildly corrosion resistant.

For applications with low clearance, these carriages protrude less than 5 mm above their rails. Use them for light to moderate loads, as well as frequent starting and stopping applications where tight tolerances are not required. Sleeve bearings allow them to outperform ball bearings in wet, dirty, and high-vibration environments. Mount in any orientation without affecting load capacity.

Compensate for rail misalignment in low-clearance applications with these carriages and guide rails. These carriages stick out less than 5 mm above their rails, giving them a low profile. They have a floating bearing that adjusts to correct misalignment between rails, so your carriages still move in tandem. Use them for light to moderate loads and applications with frequent starting and stopping where tight tolerances aren’t needed.

For a complete system, you’ll need a self-aligning carriage and rail on one side and a fixed-alignment carriage and rail on the other (all sold separately).

Carriages for axial rail misalignment compensate when the rails aren’t installed at the same exact height.

Carriages for parallel rail misalignment compensate when one rail is straight and the other is installed at a slight angle.

Carriages for axial/parallel rail misalignment compensate when the rails aren’t installed at the same exact height and also when one rail is straight while the other is installed at a slight angle.

Note: Each carriage can only be used with its corresponding guide rail. Load capacity is diminished when carriages are mounted upside down or on a vertical surface.

Build loops, circuits, and curved paths in assembly stations and other repetitive processes using these carriages and guide rails. They have a wide base, which means they stabilize twisting and off-center loads better than standard carriages and rails. They're useful in areas where multiple carriages and rails won’t fit. The carriages have sleeve bearings that swivel, so they move around curves without jamming. Their sleeve bearings also perform better in dirty, wet, and high-vibration environments than carriages with ball bearings. You can mount them in any orientation.
