| Hi Richard, Thanks for your reply. ![]() ![]() ![]() I was missing the name DOVETAIL SLIDES. I also searched google but found that mostly are designed to give the sliding motion through a screw mechanism. I was looking out for dovetail design which are manufactured to give motion by hand of much smaller in size (may be 30 *40 * 70 mm). Thanks Varma Comments Welcomed. |

| Hi Can anyone mention some applications where such dovetail sliders are been used. I refer to those which are motioned by hand feed & smaller in size so that it will be easy to check out the exisiting dovetails in market & purchase directly. Ash |

| hand/manually operated operations have gone to a "linear bearing" type movement. The dove tailed slide needs a certain amount of clearance/slop to work without binding. A linear bearing eliminates this play and binding. There are linear bearings that use a bushing instead of balls or rollers. Hope this helps, cary |

| As mentioned above, there are many types of slides. The picture in post #1 shows a dovetail slide. There are also box slides (rectangular cross section), roller slides, ball slides, ball-on-wire slides, "V" and "double V" slides, plain bushing, ball bushing and ???? Size is also a consideration. Descriptions like "small" and "large" are relative. Actual dimensions are far more helpful. Would like to be more helpful myself, can you be more specific of your requirements? Dick Z

| Hi Richard Thanks for your wonderful support. ![]() I have attached a image including dimensions. I may compromise on sizes upto some extent. Also i prefer a box type slide (rectangular type). I think my previous requirment of dovetail won't satisfy my purpose precisely. Thanks Varma |
