Benefits :

• Ball bearing guiding system allow very high speed work and is extremely precise. This type of guide is particularly interesting for thin sheet applications.

Available in 3 tolerance classes for precise matching with the guide bushes according to the need.

Conception : Modular design for an easy integration and simplified maintenance.

• Machining 
• Grinding / honing

Target application :

Ideal for press tools, injection moulds or any other assembly requiring precise, reliable guidance.

Recommendation for use :

• Mounting : The straight sleeve bushes are glued into the plate

1.Degrease with acetone or a similar solvant and thoroughly wipe clean

the outer surface of the straight sleeve bush and the inside of the plate bore.
