Linear Motion

Crossed roller slide assemblies are known for their high load capacities, low maintenance needs and accuracy. They excel in areas where ball bearing slide assemblies cannot.

These products are compact that can support and guide heavy loads with high accuracy, excellent repeatability and low friction.

Explore our breadth of modular assemblies with multiple size and travel options. These products effectively minimize problems related to impact and shock, over the lifetime of the bearing.

Ball bearing carriages allow for minor misalignements and offer a wide range of linear movements. The integrated rolling elements greatly reduce friction.

Ball bearing guide rails are easy to assemble and give a long service life even with heavy loads or over long distances.

Featuring closed and open bearing housing styles for ease of maintenance. Comes with and without a flange option to suit your application needs.

A great liason between the shaft and the carriage, these bushings can handle a moderate amount of load while moving at a fast rate.

Ball screw products improve load capacity, speed, accuracy and overall life while acmw products improve noise cancellation, vertical applications and backlash.

Reid Supply offers ball and acme nuts for the reliable transfer of loads in a linear fashion. Available in square, round and flanged options.

Mount the screws, nuts and carriages to these flanges to create a turnkey solution for your linear motion applications. Available in different diameters and thread sizes.

Linear motion applications utilizing a ball or acme screw require a screw mount that is designed to withstand both radial and thrust loads generated by the application screw assembly.

Track roller assemblies are known for their ability to move at high speeds, functionality in harsh environments, low noise levels and ease of assembly.

Featuring front and side mount options to cater to the various power transmission needs, including curved guides. The low profiles and miniature sizes make these carriages ideal for semi-conductor, laboratory, medical and packaging applications.

These rails are precision machined for optimum accuracy and parallelism. Drilled through holes for easy installation. They accommodate high moment loads by mounting two parallel tracks in a wide spacing.

Track rollers, also known as cam followers, provide continuous and dependable motion. They are frequently used in food processing, farm and construction, machine tools, metal-working and packaging. Available in stud and yoke styles.

Guide bushings provide a simple method for mounting guide wheels in a precise and rigid fashion. Insert a fastener with a washer in the through hole to attach wheels to machinery. Concentric version is for mounting in a fixed location. The eccentric version has an offset hole to provide an adjustable position and allow wheel fit-up adjustment to parallel guide track.

This two-piece system is easy to assemble. The rail and carriage are made of 6063-T6 Aluminum. Rails are ceramic coated to resist corrosion, repel weld splatter and contaminants. Carraiges have T-slots for nuts and bolts.

These carriages are low profile and self lubricating and are excellent alternatives to linear ball bearing systems. They dampen vibrations and tolerate shock loads. Corrosion-resistant material. No metal-to-metal contact or rolling elements to trap contamination, skid or damage the rail. Operation is consistent, smooth and quiet. Used in packaging machines, medical eqipment, wash-down and harsh environments.

These come as one and two piece assemblies. The one piece integrated design eliminates assembly time but cannot be used with ball bearings. The two piece assembly comes with pre-drilled holes for easy installation.

High quality shafts that come as solid, pre-drilled and square styles. Multiple materials to choose from: Steel, Stainless Steel, Ceramic Coated Aluminum and much more.

Includes support rails and support blocks. The support rails are pre-drilled for easy mounting and are to be used with open style bearings. Support blocks are used for shaft end support.

Like the sleeve bearing carriages, these are self lubricating as well. The pillow blocks come in flange and non-flange options.

Sleeve bearings require no external lubrication. High load capacity allows for more compact design. Available in square and round shapes.

Service your square sleeve bearing systems on the go with these accessories! The clamps and bases are made from cast 356-T6 Aluminum for good strength and corrosion resistance.

Dovetail slides typically have a larger contact area as compared to other sliding assemblies, providing a high stiffness and load bearing capacity. The dovetail interconnects the saddle and base and guides the travel of the saddle. Dovetail slides can be preloaded with the gib adjustment for increased friction. Applications include automation, shuttle devices, fixtures, work holding and press loading
