SMI offers a precision series ball slide for designers who require a higher degree of accuracy and repeatability. Preload can be customized to fit the designer's requirements. SMI's precision ball slides incorporate fewer components in its construction which gives a higher degree of reliability and reduces costs. Pre-assembled and pre-loaded for immediate installation, mounting can be done with our standard hole patterns with standard fasteners or can be created to your requirements including metrics. Center holes are standard and are a unique feature on SMI's ball slides ( for travel 1" and over).
Mounting with a center hole will eliminate any bow on the slide and add greater mounting
security. Interchangeable with many popular sizes. Custom made ball slides are available.
