Anyone seen a place to buy caged roller style blocks & rails?

[Thazul]

I've been looking for caged roller style linear bearings but can't seem to find a website that has them and lists prices, anyone seen them offered by any of our hobby friendly sites yet?
Hiwin RG series, THK-SRG, IKO, SKF any of them really?
You know the one with rollers not balls (see pic)




Thanks!

You can try these guys.

MISUMI Europe - Mechanical Components - Linear Shafts, Linear Bushings, Locating Pins, Slide Guides, Timing Pulleys, XY Stages

IKO sells them but I doubt they publish prices. Theirs are caged & have that oil impregnated poly for long term (lifetime?) lubrication.

Mactec,
any chance that would be IKO LRX15 rails ?

Hi isvflorin
No I wish I had some 15mm roller rails, the linear roller rail sets I have are all 30mm wide rails star brand

Thanks for the replies!
Mactec: yea I was hoping to stumble upon some 15's or 20's.
All the rails I find on on the sites w/ prices (automation4less/mcmaster/homeshopcnc) etc. are the ball kind. Bummer!
I have no immediate use, was just hoping to find them available with prices.
I'm drawing up a welded steel/EG mill, and I wanted to use that type of rail/bearing.
I noticed the new Syil mill uses the Hiwin RG.
Hopefully someone will start offering them soon.

Cheers,

Andy

Andy,
I have a bunch of new IKO LRX15 trucks, 23 units, i'm trying to find rails for them too, but they are pretty pricey.
The only website where I found prices is :

If you'll ever want to build that thing I can sell you some trucks so I can afford rails....
Good luck on your build.
