Slide Rail Features of the Slide Rail Outer rail Inner rail Cage Ball Fig.1 Structure of Slide Rail Model FBL Structure and Features Slide Rail model FBL is a thin, compact, lightweight and ultra-low price slide unit for finite motion. It has two rows of balls placed between an inner rail (made of a steel sheet roll-formed with precision) and an outer rail. The balls are evenly spaced by a cage press-molded with precision, thus eliminating friction between balls and achieving a smooth slide mechanism. Since model FBL achieves smooth straight motion with easy installation, it can be used in a wide range of applications such as photocopiers, measuring instruments, telecommunication equipment, medical equipment, automatic vending machines and various types of office equipment. Unit Type That Allows Easy Installation Since the clearance and the motion of the slide unit are optimally adjusted, simply mounting the unit onto the base or the table using screws will achieve a slide mechanism with virtually no running noise. Thin and Compact Since the sectional shape is thin designed, this slide pack only requires a small side space for installation. In addition, a desired number of slide pack units can be installed in parallel according to the load conditions. Maintenance-free Operation Since the Slide Rail model FBL is treated with zinc plating, and models E and D are treated with white alumite treatment, they are highly corrosion resistant. In addition, the slide unit contains lithium soap-based grease, which is highly stable against oxidation.
