Ball Slides & Cross Roller Slides

All Easy Slide™ Ball Slides and Cross Roller Slides come standard with:

- True Travel™ anti-cage creep technology
- Straight Line Accuracy: 0.0005"/inch of travel
- Positional Repeatability: 0.001"
- Coefficient of Friction: 0.003 typical
- Finish: Black anodized

SMI™ ball slides utilize hardened and ground wire race technology combined with precision grade ball bearings which produce long, extremely smooth, and predictable life. SMI™ Easy Slide™ precision cross roller slides are built with the same advanced technology and cost saving technique as our Easy Slide™ ball slides. The bearing design utilizes a bearing system containing cylindrical steel rollers offering engineers an option for high load carrying capacity with extremely smooth and predictable life.

SMI™ Easy Slide™ ball slides and cross roller slides incorporate fewer components in its construction which gives a higher degree of reliability and reduces costs. Pre-assembled and pre-loaded for immediate installation, mounting can be done with our standard hole patterns with standard fasteners or can be created to your requirements including metrics.

Center holes are standard and are a unique feature on SMI™ Easy Slide™ ball slides (for travel 1" and over). Mounting with a center hole will eliminate any bow on the slide and add greater mounting security. Interchangeable with many popular sizes.
