PBC Linear offers linear shafting in a variety of different options to meet a wide range of customer needs. Available in hardened steel, 440 stainless steel, ceramic coated aluminum alloy, predrilled and undrilled, inch and metric, PBC Linear is perfectly suited to meet and exceed your linear shafting expectations. Produced through a process that has been developed and refined to deliver the highest levels of repeatability in dimensional tolerances, the result is linear shafting that supplies greater uniformity of load distribution through the bearing, improved system life, and increased bearing life. Rolling element bearings have an increased life expectancy due to a greater normalization of load distribution. Plane bearings have a lower coefficient of friction and decreased binding occurrences due to a more consistent contact interface with the shaft.
