Shaft Supporter

Shaft supporters make it possible to clamp SB type shafts and do away with the requirement for bolts to keep the shaft in place. For high precision applications, shimming is advised to get rid of the impact of base surface variations or manufacturing tolerances between supports. In addition to this, for keeping the shafts that open-type linear bushings run on from bending under strain, shaft support rails are used. Shaft supporters are offered in parts that are ready to mount and are renowned for precision and rigidity. These are available in inch and metric sizes, plain or pre-drilled, to avoid deflection and improve efficiency.
