Actuator Assemblies have TFE coating.
Mechanical Components and Assemblies

Actuator Assemblies have TFE coating.

Lead screw, linear rail, spline shaft, and ScrewRail(TM) actuator assemblies are available with Kerkote(TM) TFE coating, which reduces friction and extends life of maintenance-free assemblies. Coating decreases erratic drag torques and unpredictable wear and provides maximum level of self-lubrication. Dry lubricant will not become paste-like and attract dirt or debris. Assemblies are suited for...

Steel Spline Shafts eliminate need for external lubrication.

Surface-hardened steel spline shafts are treated with low-friction TFE coating. Graphite- and PTFE-filled thermoplastic bushing, manufactured with integral brass collar, facilitates mounting without nut distortion. Offered in standard lengths to 24 in., assemblies are available with basic or anti-backlash bushing; plain or thread mount bushing; and Â-¼, 3/8, Â-½, or Â-¾ in. dia shaft....

Linear Rail System suits light-load applications.
Material Handling & Storage

Linear Rail System suits light-load applications.

Extended-wear Series LR consists of centerless, ground and burnished, stainless steel shaft, mated with graphite- and PTFE-filled thermoplastic bushing, formulated so thermal fluctuations have minimal effect on performance. Standard shaft straightness is .002 in./ft. Typical radial clearance between shaft and bushing is .0005 in. on non-coated assemblies and .001 in. on TFE-coated assemblies....

Lead Screws handle demanding miniature applications.
Mechanical Components and Assemblies

Lead Screws handle demanding miniature applications.

Comprised of small diameter, precision-rolled, non-ball lead screw assemblies, Mini Series lasts hundreds of millions of inches of travel without requiring external lubrication, maintenance, or adjustment. Units are made of 303 stainless steel with TFE coating. Standard diameters are as small as .125 in. Designed to run smoothly on precision-rolled screws, maintenance-free nuts are made with...

Non-Ball Lead Screws provide quiet operation.
Mechanical Components and Assemblies

Non-Ball Lead Screws provide quiet operation.

For vertical operation, Non-Ball Lead Screws can be designed to self-lock and prevent back driving, without external brake. They utilize sliding friction between nut and screw to convert rotary input motion to linear output motion. Screws do not need to be hardened, and coating eliminates need for external lubrication. Made from 303 stainless steel, screws range from 1/8 to 15/16 in. diameter,...

Spline Shafts handle light linear loads.
Mechanical Power Transmission

Spline Shafts handle light linear loads.

Lightweight aluminum spline shafts are suitable for applications that require rotary drive or linear guide. Shafts are treated with low-friction TFE coating and coupled with graphite and PTFE-filled thermoplastic bushing. Coating eliminates need for external lubrication and maintenance. Units are available with basic or anti-backlash bushing; plain or thread mount bushing; and 1/4, 3/8, or 1/2...
