Positioning Slides
Use these slides in a variety of manual-positioning applications for laboratory and production equipment as well as for positioning parts for drilling, fastening, assembly, and measuring. Their Rulon sleeve bearings allow smooth movement in dirty environments.
Travel distance per turn, also known as screw lead, is the distance the carriage moves with one revolution of the handle.
Note: Capacities listed are for horizontal mounting. When mounted vertically, the load capacity is cut in half.

Precision Positioning Slides
A linear scale and micrometer-like hand wheel measure travel distance in increments of 0.001". Rulon sleeve bearings allow these slides to move smoothly, even in dirty environments. Use them in a variety of manual-positioning applications for laboratory and production equipment as well as for positioning parts for drilling, fastening, assembly, and measuring.
Travel distance per turn, also known as screw lead, is the distance the carriage moves with one revolution of the handle.
Note: Capacities listed are for horizontal mounting. When mounted vertically, the load capacity is cut in half.

High-Load Positioning Slides
Made with Frelon bearings, these slides have over four times the load capacity of standard positioning slides. They have a precision lead screw for use in a variety of manual-positioning applications for laboratory and production equipment as well as for positioning parts for drilling, fastening, assembly, and measuring.
Travel distance per turn, also known as screw lead, is the distance the carriage moves with one revolution of the handle.
Two-axis mounting plates (sold separately) let you mount two slides together for motion along two axes.
Note: Capacities listed are for horizontal mounting only.

Telescoping Rail Sets
Create your own positioning table or telescoping slide.
Steel rails have crossed-roller bearings that handle high loads for their small size.
440 Stainless steel rails have a stabilizing gear that won’t fall out of alignment from vibration and sudden shocks, so you don’t have to stop your system to manually realign them. However, they have shorter travel length than standard telescoping rails because of their rack and pinion system.
