You might find your current supplier is taking up to 6 months to supply, or even longer. The Thomson 400 series profile rail linear guides from Micromech can in some cases be supplied in as little as 1 to 2 weeks. The 400 Series is a cost effective, transport grade Profile Rail solution for cost-sensitive applications and is designed as a drop-in replacement with industry-standard envelope and hole patterns.
These double-faced ball track-bearing arrangements provide compliance during installation as well as equal load carrying capacity in all directions. Caged and non-caged carriages utilise the same rail design, enabling efficient use of inventory since only one rail type needs to be stocked for either carriage type.

Main Features

Polymer ball-return tube reduces noise and vibration while retaining lubrication

Standard double lip end and longitudinal seals retain lubrication while protecting the bearing from contamination

Lubrication channels direct lubricant to individual ball tracks, maximising lubricating effectiveness

Double-faced ball tracks utilise a 45° face-to-face bearing arrangement, resulting in equal load-carrying capacity in all directions

413 ball cage option provides increased travel smoothness, lower noise at high speeds, and individual lubricant reservoirs

Optional corrosion-resistant, hard chrome plating

Additional rubber wiper and metal scraper accessories

We also learn from our customers that American ballscrews (inch versions) are also in short supply. Here again we can help; on similar 1 to 2 weeks lead-time for some sizes we may have the answers to your delivery problems!
