This slide is formed by identical fixed and moving members and an I-shaped intermediate member and is almost square. The I-shaped intermediate member allows the rails to carry high loads especially when the load is applied in a radial direction (referring to the drawings at right, the load would be vertical). The load capacity for loads applied axially is lower. When mounted, this slide offers a single direction stroke equal to slightly more than its closed length.
A double direction stroke is obtainable by removing the endstop screws at the end of each side of the intermediate member. The slide will not disassemble with the removal of these screws due to a system of built-in pins. Upon request, slides with special length strokes can be ordered.
Special strokes can be up to 130% of the closed length of the slide while still maintaining high load capacities and low deflection. |
