Thomson Shaft Support Rails

Support rails are used for continuous shafting support and can be used horizontally or vertically.  They are available in several different types based on your application loading and envelope needs.  These supports come standard available from stock and are made to simplify shaft mounting.  Shaft supports eliminate many problems encountered in designing and manufacturing custom shaft supporting devices.  Unlimited travel lengths and mounting hole flexibility is another reason why Thomson support rails are right for any application.
