Linear housing for drylin® W profile rails

drylin® W linear housing for profile rails enable extreme flexibility in terms of technical design of linear guides. Whether on single or double rails, individually adjustable or preloaded – igus® enables the reality of individual construction ideas for linear guides. The maintenance and lubrication-free pillow block moves smoothly over the rails during dry operation. By using sliding surfaces made of tribologically optimised high-performance polymers, the linear housings are characterised by special robustness and resistance to external influences such as chemicals, heat, water, dirt and shock loads.
