Lubricant is delivered directly to the V face and in turn it is picked up by the carriage and bearings as they pass over each point. The lubricant will then be carried around the entire system, ensuring an even distribution. As the lubricant is provided via the slide rather than the lubricators or cap seals fitted to each carriage, the number of them can be reduced within a system. It is recommended that one in four carriages is fitted with lubricators or cap seals in any system using bleed lubrication, this will reduce running friction and running costs. Inserts are available with either a M5 thread or 4mm diameter bore with O-ring seal*1. Lubricant can be supplied via a grease or oil filled pressured canister which dispenses lubricant at a controlled rate, or via a customers own centralised lubrication system. Notes: 1. Inserts will vary for HDS2 slides as detailed in the datasheet below.

No. 6 Bleed Lubrication Below are examples of how the bleed lubrication facility can be incorporated into typical applications within the product ranges stated. GV3 Plain bore insert Auto lubrication canister HDS2 Double edge slide 90° Male stud fitting HDS2 Single edge slide Extended insert 90° male stud fitting Flat Insert

No. 6 Bleed Lubrication DTS Only two carriage plates fitted with lubricators Bleed lubrication shown with plain hole insert Only 2 fixed centre carriages fitted with lubricators. Bleed lubrication hole on both the inner and outer V of each slide. Auto Lubrication Canister Bleed lubrication hole shown with threaded insert for the grease to flow through.

No. 6 Bleed Lubrication Bleed lubrication can be used with slides across the GV3, PRT2, SL2 and DTS range of products. Slides with dual bleed lubrication holes are shown below with details of their positions. The double edge slides are also available with single bleed lubrication holes, these can be positioned on either vee and anywhere along the length, please specify at the time of ordering.

No. 6 Bleed Lubrication Single edge slides are also available with the bleed lubrication facility. Details of their positions are shown below. Single edge slides C Part Number (T)NSE (T)NME NLE Notes: 1. Depends on whether a plain or threaded insert is used. Please see page 7 for more information. 2. All other slide dimensions not specified are the same as standard slides. Please refer to individual product catalogues for mor

No. 6 Bleed Lubrication HDS2 Bleed lubrication can be used with slides in the HDS2 range. The position of the bleed lubrication holes for both single and double edge slides are shown below*1. Double edge slides are arranged so the 90° fitting can be attached to the top of the slide as shown on page 2. Double edge slides are also available with single bleed lubrication holes, these can be positioned on either V and anywhere along the length, please specify at time of ordering.

No. 6 Bleed Lubrication Bleed Lubrication Inserts Different styles of insert are required to transfer lubricant to the slide V depending on the product being used. The plain bore insert has an O ring seal between the mounting base and the slide to stop lubricant escaping. The threaded version has an M5 male stud fitting through which the lubricant is pumped. When mounting HDS2 single edge slides onto a HDS2 beam, an extended insert is used along with a 90° male stud fitting to pump the lubricant to the slide V. When mounting HDS2 double edge slides to a beam a 90° male stud fitting is used...

No. 6 Bleed Lubrication Ordering Examples To order slides with bleed lubrication, use the standard slide ordering details as shown in the individual product catalogues, but include the type of bleed lubrication insert required to the end of the order, examples are shown below.
