Igus Linear Guide Carriage NW-02-40 DryLin N Series, 400 N Dynamic Load

This bearing is a closed-end linear bearing intended for guiding shafts in automation and mechanical assemblies. It combines a compact aluminium body with a design suited to linear motion applications where a sealed end and defined centreline offset are required. The component is designed for industry use where solid radial support and integration into linear systems are needed.

• 10080N static capacity provides sustained support under high preload
• 1440N dynamic rating enables continuous motion loads
• 13mm base-to-bore centreline ensures consistent alignment
• Aluminium construction reduces mass for moving assemblies
• Closed-end design prevents shaft overtravel and ingress
• 36mm overall length allows compact carriage integration

• Suitable for linear guideways in pick-and-place units
• Ideal for actuator shafts in control panels and enclosures
• Used for supporting guide rods in conveyor modules
• Can be used for motion stages in test rigs
• Used with sliding elements in compact automation cells

It accepts shafts with a 16mm internal bore to ensure a snug rotational fit.

The 26mm external diameter determines bore size for housings and press-fit tolerances.

The closed-end configuration limits entry of debris from one end, reducing contamination risk at the shaft terminus.

The aluminium body offers good thermal conductivity and low mass, affecting heat transfer and inertia in moving systems.
