Other Info.

The BSP series is a lightweight and compact linear motion rolling guide made of stainless steel formed precisely to be U-shaped table or track rail. Offering high performance and durability, this series is suitable for scanning or writing heads of memory storage devices such as hard disk drives. The series is also widely applicable for measuring equipment, IC manufacturing and inspection devices etc. For the M2.6 holes, slightly smaller threads (M2.5) will fit.
A special composite resin retainer is used to captive the balls and eliminate noise caused by the balls contacting each other. Extremely smooth and light movement without stick slip in limited stroke length are characteristic of this type. Unevenly applied loads and high fluctuating velocities may dislocate the position of the ball retainer. Therefore, it is recommended that the retainer is periodically repositioned to its proper location by cycling over its full length.
Does not incorporate a mechanical stopper, so it is necessary to add a stopper mechanism to the surrounding equipment when excessive strokes are likely to occur.
Sensitive to external contaminants, so it is recommended that any dirt should be washed out with a suitable cleaning agent.
In order to ensure smooth motion, a high grade lubricant should be reapplied to the raceway and balls.
For temperatures over 100°C we can supply special high temperature grease, 200°C - supplied in syringe (Part No. CG2-SY).

Notes:
To maximise the accuracy, centre the applied load over the table or bed, and to obtain consistently high accuracy in operation, do not exceed 20% of the basic static load rating.
Allow enough additional stroke length to avoid reaching the maximum stroke length.
Models BSP715SL to BSP740SL cannot be mounted from inside of the table and bed.
