Extra-Wide Ball Bearing Carriages and Guide Rails
With a wide base and low-profile design, these carriages and guide rails stabilize moment (twisting) and off-center loads better than other carriages and rails. They're good for use in areas where multiple carriages or rails won't fit. Ball bearings provide accurate movement and positioning at high speeds under heavy loads. Mount in any orientation without affecting load capacity. End seals keep lubricant in and dirt out. Add guide rail bellows to protect the rails from contaminants as carriages move across them.
Standard carriages are narrower than flanged carriages, making them better for confined spaces.
Flanged carriages have threaded mounting holes on the flanges rather than the carriage body, so you can fasten loads from both the top and bottom. When fastening from the bottom, use the mounting hole as a through-hole.

For made-to-order guide rails, please specify the length of the rail (in 1 mm increments). The mounting holes will be centered along the rail.

High-Cycle Extra-Wide Ball Bearing Carriages and Guide Rails
With a plastic cage that surrounds the ball bearings to prevent them from colliding, these extra-wide carriages run quietly for many cycles without needing maintenance. All of these carriages have a wide base and low-profile design to stabilize moment (twisting) and off-center loads better than other carriages. They’re good for use in areas where multiple carriages or rails won't fit. End seals keep dust out, and the cage traps lubricant around the bearings, reducing friction and heat buildup. Ball bearings provide accurate movement and positioning at high speeds under heavy loads. Mount in any orientation without affecting load capacity.
Standard carriages are narrower than flanged carriages, making them better for confined spaces.
Flanged have four threaded mounting holes on the flanges rather than the carriage body, so you can fasten loads from both the top and bottom. When fastening from the bottom, use the mounting hole as a through-hole.

High-Cycle Low-Profile Ball Bearing Carriages and Guide Rails
Run many cycles in tight spaces before replacing or re-greasing carriages. These low-profile carriages have a plastic cage surrounding the ball bearings to keep them from colliding with each other. This reduces the noise, heat, friction, and dust they produce, so carriages can travel back and forth along the rail many times. The cage also traps grease around the balls and makes sure they roll in the same direction. Ball bearings provide accurate movement and positioning at high speeds under heavy loads. Made of stainless steel, all of these carriages and guide rails are corrosion resistant. Each carriage has end seals to keep lubricant in and dirt out.
