Round Shaft Technology utilizes precision round shafting as the guide way, and combines with linear plain bearings or linear ball bearings for movement. While the shafting is often hardened steel, other materials such as stainless steel and hard anodized aluminum are also readily available. All materials are available in the standard industry sizes. RST self lubricating linear plain bearings and linear ball bearings are available wide variety of configurations, and offer solutions for an extensive range of applications. Support rails for round shafting coupled with open bearings offer additional rigidity for heavier loads. Flanged bearings and pillow blocks offer a variety of mounting configurations.
- Simplicity® linear plain and linear ball bearings in imperial, ISO metric, and JIS metric sizes
- Closed, open, and flanged styles in bearing only and housed assemblies
- Selection of shaft materials, length, and configurations
