Thomson 400 Series Profile Rail Linear Guide
The 400 Series Profile Rail Linear Guide is the newest addition to the Thomson Linear Guide product line. 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. 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 utilize the same rail design, enabling efficient use of inventory since only one rail type needs to be stocked for either carriage type.
