Designed for contaminated environments, NSK Precison America’s VI series of linear guides delivers functionality and long operating life for manufacturing equipment applications with heavy exposure to particles such as graphite powder and sawdust. The series features high-performance seals with a multi-lip structure, as well as caps for rail mounting holes, which reduces the entry of fine contaminants to less than 1/10 of existing NSK products. Low-temperature chrome or fluorinated chrome plating surface treatments are available. The guides are equipped with the company’s K1 lubrication units, which allow long-term, maintenance-free operations in environments where grease is either difficult to replenish or easily washed away.
