Long-Life DH/DS Series Linear Guides

NSK has applied its proprietary TF “Tough” heat treatment technology to DH/DS series linear guides, achieving greater machine capacity with extremely high load ratings and substantially longer life operating under high loads and challenging environments.

Long-Life DH/DS Series Linear Guides

Design Features

  • Available in standard DH series and compact, low-profile DS series
  • DV models (DH model + highly dust-resistant end seals with a multi-lip structure are also available
  • High-speed, high-load design is standard
  • TF “Tough” heat treatment technology increases steel surface endurance under high load conditions
  • 2 types of ball slides: square and flange type
  • 3 lengths of ball slide: standard high load, long super-high load, and short medium load
  • Ball slides and rail made manufactured with special high carbon steel; stainless steel option available for corrosive environments
  • Accuracy grades range from normal to ultra-precision
  • With fine clearance, slight preload and medium preload options
  • Accessories and extras including: K1-L lubrication units, double seals, protector plates, surface treatments

Operating Benefits

  • TF "Tough" heat treatment technology increases steel surface endurance under high load conditions
  • Twice the running distance / operating life of NSK’s NH/NS series
  • Greater resistance to contamination-initiated wear and flaking damage
  • Higher capacity enables downsizing to achieve reduced system weight, friction and energy consumption
