NB Precision Linear Motion Products

Ball Splines


NB ball splines are designed for mechanical applications which require both linear motion and torque transmission. The rolling contact of the balls eliminate backlash and reduce friction, helping achieve greater precision and reliability.

The spline shaft facilitates additional machining and high accuracy because of a round shaft shape. Since the spline shaft is also machined by cylindrical grinding, it has a high sealing performance and a well-balanced structure that reduces the vibration and noise during rotary motion. It also provides a high degree of geometrical moment of inertia and high rigidity. This enables long-term, high precision linear motion.

A wide variety of ball splines are available. Spline nuts are also available in variations of cylindrical, flange, and block types. Spline shafts are available in variations of ground spline, standard spline, and commercial shafts.
