Linear Guide Rails: The GBV - Series

The GBV series features precision linear guide rails equipped with ball retainers made of bronze, ensuring enhanced durability and stable performance under demanding operating conditions. The robust bronze cage design ensures reliable ball guidance, consistent load distribution, and smooth, low-friction linear motion over a limited stroke. Due to their material properties, bronze retainers provide excellent wear resistance and reliable operation in applications requiring increased mechanical stability. Typical applications include precision positioning systems, optics, metrology equipment, and laboratory or research environments.

Stroke ranges
13 mm - 486 mm

Bronze ball retainer design
Depending on size, equipped with 5-41 balls guided in a bronze retainer for smooth and stable motion.

Complete set delivery
Supplied as a set with 4 rails, 2 cages and 8 end screws.
