THK HSR LM Guides

The linear bushing is a linear motion product that is used in combination with a cylindrical LM shaft. The ball bearings in the load area offer point contact with the LM shaft. This allows straight motion with minimal friction resistance and therefore smooth motion.

High-carbon chromium bearing steel is used for the nut, and the outer and inner surfaces are ground and heat-treated.

Linear bushings are used for medical equipment, packing equipment, and lightweight OA equipment that is not subject to vibration, shock, etc.

However, they cannot be used for applications in which loads are applied in a rotational direction.
‍

[Interchangeability]
The linear bushing and LM shaft are interchangeable, allowing for use in any combination.

‍
[Low Noise]
A molded resin retainer is incorporated into the standard type in order to prevent the balls from fall-ing out. This also provides silent and smooth operation.

‍
[Wide Array of Types]
A wide array of types are available, such as the Standard Type, Clearance-adjustable Type, Open
Type, Long Type, Fitted Flange Type, and Flanged Linear Bushing, allowing the user to select a type that suits the intended application.
