RODLESS ACTUATORS ENDURANCE TECHNOLOGY

Tolomatic B3S & B3W Electric Rodless Actuators The Power to Move Heavy Loads The B3S and B3W electric rodless actuators have very large moment and load carrying capacities. The sealed recirculating ball bearing design makes it an excellent choice for challenging environments. For even higher capacity (loads up to 8,000 lbs.) choose the Dual 180° Carrier and add an auxiliary carrier. Both actuators utilize a patented internal re-circulating ball bearing guidance system that provides extremely long life. These actuators are capable of carrying loads up to 8,000 lbs.
