Applications
Thomson RoundRail RL shafting is used as the running surface in linear motion systems across a broad range of industrial and automation applications. The round rail format accepts Thomson's standard open and closed linear bearings and pillow blocks, making it a common choice in machine tool linear axes, gantry systems, pick-and-place automation, conveyor and material handling equipment, and custom fabricated linear stages. The 440C stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for wash-down, food processing, and light chemical environments where carbon steel shafting would be inappropriate. At 75 inches, this rod is well suited to longer-travel axes and custom machine builds requiring extended linear travel.
This Thomson RoundRail RL 1" Linear Guide Rod in 440C stainless steel has been inspected and appears to be in good used condition. The rod surface shows minor handling wear consistent with prior use, and one end retaining collar and end cap are fitted and intact. The rod was pulled from a working industrial environment. Please review our photos for a close look at the current surface and end conditions, and contact us with any questions.
