NB Precision Linear Motion Products

Slide Shaft


The NB slide shaft is used with bearings such as a slide bush in order to obtain highly accurate linear motion. When used in combination with a slide bush, the shaft performs as the inner race of the bearing system. The quality and accuracy of the shaft directly affect the performance of the slide bush.

The NB slide shaft is manufactured with an emphasis on quality and accuracy to ensure stable functionality under many operating conditions. Superior performance is guaranteed for both rotational motion and combined rotation and linear motion.
 

 Product Series

SN / SNS
NB Shaft

• high-precision, straight, machined shaft series that may be used with a slide bush or as material in other applications

SNT
NB Tubular Shaft

• used to reduce weight without reducing the material's rigidity. It may also be used for channeling electrical wires, hydraulic, or pneumatic sources.

SF / SNSF / SNTF
NB Fine Shaft

• mass produced straight shafts with the most commonly used dimensions
• tolerance specification of the outer diameter is g6 which is commonly recommended for use with NB's slide bush

SNW / SNWS

• inch dimension shafts with the same level quality as SN/SNS type.
• PD (center-lined tapped hole) type is available for relatively long shafts.
• PD type can be used with WA shaft support rail for better performance.
