| | | • In-Stock Slide Widths from 2" Thru 10" • Immediate Shipment • Standard with Hand Feed Package • Common Accessories Readily Available Quality Construction The M Series is a precision line of off-the-shelf dovetail slide assemblies equipped with manual feed. The hand feed package includes a milled thread Acme leadscrew, bronze nut with anti-backlash compensation, and hand-wheel with micrometer dial graduated in 0.001" Increments. Ideal applications Include positioning fixtures, workholding devices, checking fixtures, gauges, assembly equipment, etc. M Series slides are engineered to virtually eliminate distortion using a base and saddle manufactured from normalized and stress-relieved machine tool grade cast iron. The saddle top and way surfaces are precision ground. Way surfaces are machined with oil grooves to ensure proper oil retention, improve bearing surface contact and provide a closer fit between mating way surfaces.* As standard, the M Series is available only in the slide lengths and with the accessories specified in this catalog. Contact the factory for additional non-standard sizes; M5, M6, and M7. When custom lengths and other accessories are required, select slides from our MASTER/SETCO DS Series. Call our toll-free number for factory assistance. | | |
| | | :.-1. For applications where load is ap| in the direction of slide travel, the capacity may be limited to the capacity of the slide feed mechanism. Check the load values with the maximum thrust capacities for the feed mechanism being used. For static applications, the slide load capacity may be limited by the saddle locking device. Slide load capacity is based on uniformly applied loads and moments. Consult factory on all applications where shock loading is present. 2. For applications involving an Mx moment, the slide load capacity may be limited by the Fs Load capacity. | | |
