R&I Manufacturing Co. Non-Powered Linear Slides RGC-Series

DURA-SLIDE RGC Series of Non-Powered Linear Slides provide a time proven design that is extremely reliable, yet economical. The RGC series has been tested under actual operating conditions with up to 160 million inches accumulated travel with negligible wear. FEATURES DURA-SLIDE RGC Series maintain all rod bores parallel to the mounting surface within .002" per foot. The slide bearings are oil impregnated bronze bushings, permanently protected by neoprene seals, eliminating the need for re-lubrication. Bronze bushings are utilized as standard, rather than linear ball bearings, because bushings distribute the load over a larger surface area. This results in less wear on the slide rods. Optional Linear ball bearings are available for low sliding friction applications. Both rods are pinned to the end blocks to assure positive location. MOUNTING STYLES DURA-SLIDE RGC Series can be mounted in any plane, provided both end blocks are set on machined surfaces to prevent distortion. Either the main body or the end blocks function as the fixed supports. An offset end block option permits mounting both end blocks to a plane surface without risers. Tapped holes in the main body and special strokes are available options to further increase the adaptability of the RGC series.
