Thomson currently has two account systems - one for the website and CAD model downloads, and one for e-commerce. We understand that two logins is an inconvenience and are working to consolidate our systems into one login process. Until we’re able to consolidate the two logins, please follow these guidelines:
Thomson Bearing Supports are a complete package for simple mounting of Thomson ball scew assemblies. They feature rugged steel construction, a low profile, and a compact design.
