The SGW slide guide is a linear motion bearing utilizing the rotational motion of ball elements along four rows of raceway grooves. Its low height and wide profile makes it suitable for single-rail applications.

STRUCTURE & ADVANTAGES

SGW slide guide consists of a rail with four precisionmachined raceway grooves and a block assembly. The block assembly consists of the main body, ball elements, retainers, and return caps.

High Load Capacity and Long Life:
The raceway grooves are machined to a radius close to that of the ball elements. The larger contact surface results are high load capacity and provides longer life.

High Allowable Moment:
Its wide profile enables it to sustain high moment loads, making it suitable for single-rail applications.

Omni-Directional Load Capacity:
The ball elements are positioned at 45 degree contact angle so that the load capacity is equal in four directions (above, underneath, right and left).

Smooth Motion:
The large number of ball elements produce a smooth rolling motion.

Anti-Corrosion Specification:
The rail and block assembly may be Raydent treated to increase the corrosion resistance. This treatment is standardized with the symbol "RD", and suitable for use in clean room applications.

Dust Prevention:
Side seals are provided as standard. To improve the dust prevention characteristics, under-seals and rail mounting caps are also available.
