Floating Bearings are designed to provide axial movement (float) of the V position; this is especially useful where V Slides are mounted in parallel. The axial movement compensates for parallelism tolerances between the opposing V, reducing the potential of additional loading and helping to maintain a consistent running quality.
Available in Concentric type (C), which are fixed providing a datum (in radial direction) for the system, Eccentric (E) and Double Eccentric type (DE) to enable system adjustment, with the DE version having sufficient stroke to permit disengagement from the slide.
The rollers have 70 degree V groove running surface. The precision ground and super finish running surface can reduce friction and low noise. The rollers can be used for single or vee slides and segments.
