A Low-Cost Solution for Unique Linear Guide Wheel Applications

April 22, 2024
Struggling with complex linear motion? For designs where the center of mass can be located close to the centerline of the guide wheel, Radial Wheels become the ideal solution.

Many industrial applications of linear guides require substantial load capacity in a variety of orientations to properly withstand complex and dynamic forces. The payload mass can’t always be located in the ideal location directly over the linear guide wheel, so a combination of radial and axial load capacity is needed for cantilever and gantry configurations.

Don't overpay for excess capacity! Simplified radial wheels with non-adjustable concentric design offer dependable linear performance for a fraction of the price, making them ideal for:

  • Processing Applications: CNC engraving, guided sawing, material handling, machine doors and guarding
  • Finished Products: sliding wall panels, motorized doors/windows, adjustable furniture

Discover why radial wheels are the streamlined answer to your most complex linear motion challenges - get the full story in our whitepaper.
