Power Transmission

Linear Shafts

Pair with linear bearings and shaft supports to create smooth, precise motion

Rotary Shafts

Pair with gears, sprockets, and bearings to transmit rotary motion

Idler Shafts

Support idler sprockets and pulleys in tensioning applications

Precision Lead Screws

Precision Lead Screws

Pair with precision lead screw nuts for accurate starts and stops in your assembly

Ball Screws and Nuts

Ball Screws and Nuts

Provide smooth travel where high speeds, accurate positioning, and repeatable movement are required

Ball Screw/Splines and Bearings

Ball Screw/Splines and Bearings

Transmit rotary power, move loads along the shaft, or do both at once

Roller Screws

Pair with roller screw nuts to move heavier loads than ball and lead screw assemblies

Sealing

Rod Wipers

Scrape dirt off rods to keep the inside of cylinders clean

Rod Seals

Maintain pressure inside cylinders and prevent fluid leaks
