Tips for selecting and applying telescoping linear bearings

May 4, 2015 By Danielle Collins 2 Comments

Telescoping Linear Bearings

Profiled rail and round shaft linear bearings are ideal for applications that require long stroke lengths in a fixed footprint. But if the design calls for a bearing that can retract to move away from the process or to allow access to a working area, a fixed rail or shaft won’t do. In these applications, […]
