ISO-Compliant Dimensions Super-Low Waving Model SPH

By adopting eight rows of raceways and small-diameter balls, the number of load-bearing balls within the LM block has been increased. This in turn enables the highest level of waving performance among THK LM Guide products, with super-low waving on a nanometer-level scale.

  • Designed to ISO standards, provides the compatibility with existing linear guides offering flexibility across applications.
  • Features with our eight-row design to minimize waviness to ensure precision at the nanometer range.
  • Choose from standard sizes 25-45 with the options for standard or extra-length guide carriages to accommodate diverse load capacities.
