Isotech, Inc.

Isotech now offers a new standard in linear motion with TOPBALL performance slide bushing. The TOPBALL slide bush is a high performance bushing with three times the load capacity, capable of providing up to 27 times normal travel life of a conventional slide bushing.

Features Include:

Increased Load Capacity:
Isotech's uniquely designed ground load plate provides circular arch contact to the ball element resulting in a greater dispersion of the load, enabling TOPBALL to provide three times the load capacity of conventional slide bushings.

Longer Travel Life:
Dispersed stress on the load plate provides TOPBALL up to 27 times the travel life of conventional slide bushings.

Self Aligning Capability:
Load plates are thinner at the ends to provide a pivot point at the center of the plate. The center acts as a fulcrum to compensate for any slight misalignment between the shaft and the housing bore that might be caused by inaccurate machining, mounting errors or shaft deflection.

Floating Integral Wiper Seal:
Isotech's unique floating seal design allows for self-alignment while maintaining equal and constant contact to the shaft. Seals do not add to the overall length of the bushing allowing for more compact designs.

Clearance Adjustable:
TOPBALL load plates are designed to "float" in the outer sleeve which allows for clearance between the ball elements and shaft to best suit application requirements
