PBC Linear offers a comprehensive range of linear ball guides covering the most popular standard sizes and types used in industry. PBC’s Profile Rail Technology linear guides offer a cost-effective linear guide system without sacrificing quality. Profile rail technology linear ball guides have four (4) rows of ball bearings that each contact the rail at 45º angles from a common rail centerline. This balances the forces in all directions providing high load capacity in a compact space envelope, reduced differential slip, excellent system stability, and smooth travel. High quality and accuracy combined with exceptional rigidity characterize linear ball guides from PBC Linear. Options and accessories are available to match the performance and features of PBC’s linear guides to specific applications.
