Standard type

Open type

The exterior of the Linear Bush, which is cylindrical in

shape, has a plain, high-precision surface. The bush

can be put to a wide range of uses.

The Linear Bush comes in the two series’ specified

below, which are classified by their dimensions.

LM series: Japanese specifications in millimeters;

widespread use in Japan

Type LM-M: Stainless steel models of the LM series

LME series: European specifications in millimeters;

widespread use in Europe

This type features a slit as wide as one train of balls

(50° to 80°) in the bushing sleeve, and is therefore

suitable for installation where the LM shaft is

supported by pillars or supporting bases. Additionally,

this makes clearance adjustment easy.

Types LM-OP and LME-OP

Type LM-MOP

With seals

Clearance Adjustment type

The dimensions of this type are the same as those of

the standard type. Special synthetic rubber seals are

incorporated on one or both sides of the bush so as to

prevent the entry of foreign matter and the leakage of

grease.

Types LM-UU, LME-UU, and LM-MUU

(Models with a model number containing a “U” have

a seal on one side.)

Models of the clearance-adjustable and open types

with seals are also available.

The dimensions of this type are the same as those of

the standard type. The bushing sleeve has a slit in the

LM-shaft longitudinal direction. Therefore, when

installed in a housing with an adjustable inner

diameter, this type eases adjustment of the clearance

between the LM shaft and the linear bush.

Types LM-AJ and LME-AJ

Type LM-MAJ

Long type　LM-L

  Round Flanged type

This type incorporates two retainers of the standard

type, and is therefore best suited for locations subject

to a moment load. It is useful in reducing assembly

man-hours.

Type LM-L: Standard

Type LM-L-UU: Sealed

The bushing sleeve and flange of the standard Linear

Bush are formed into one piece. This type can be

bolted directly to a housing, making installation

simple.

Type LMF: Standard

Type LMF-M: Stainless steel

Type LMF-UU: Sealed

Square Flanged type

Long type with Round Flange

The flange of type LMF is cut into a square shape.

Compared to the round type, this type has a lower

center-line height, making compact designs possible.

Type LMK: Standard

Type LMK-M: Stainless steel

Type LMK-UU: Sealed

This is the longer version of the flange type, with the

bushing sleeve and flange formed into one piece. It

can be bolted directly to a housing, making installation

simple. It incorporates two retainers of the standard

type, and is therefore best suited for locations subject

to moment load.

Type LMF-L: Standard

Type LMF-L-UU: Sealed

Long type with Square Flange

Flange Type (oval square)

The flange of type LMF-L is cut into a square shape.

Compared to the round type, this type has a lower

center-line height, making compact designs possible.

Type LMK-L: Standard

Type LMK-L-UU: Sealed

The flange and bushing sleeve are formed into one

piece, and the round flange is cut in parallel on two

opposing sides. Compared to type LMK, this has a

lower center-line height, making compact designs

possible. Due to the fact that the two trains of balls

bear loads from the flat sides, the service life is

extended.

Type LMH: Standard

Type LMH-M: Stainless steel

Type LMH-UU: Sealed

Long Flange Type(oval square)

LM Casing Unit Type SC

Due to the oval-square shape of the flange, this type

has a lower center-line height than type LMK-L,

making compact designs possible. It incorporates two

retainers of the standard type, and is therefore best

suited for a location subject to moment load. Due to

the fact that the two trains of balls bear loads from the

flat sides, the service life is extended.

Type LMH-L: Standard

Type LMH-L-M: Stainless steel

Type LMH-L-UU: Sealed

This is a compact aluminum casing unit incorporating

the standard Linear Bush. It can be bolted directly to a

table, making installation simple.

LM Casing Unit Type SL(long type)

LM Casing Unit Type SH

This is the long version of type SC. The aluminum

casing incorporates two Linear Bushes.

The standard Linear Bush, which is incorporated into

the aluminum casing, is smaller and more lightweight

than type SC. More compact design is possible with

this type than with type SC, and it can be attached in

any orientation. Due to the fact that the two trains of

balls bear loads from the casing top, the service life is

extended.

Type SH-UU: Standard

Type SH-M: Stainless steel

Type SH: Non-sealed

LM Casing Unit Type SH-L(long type)

LM-Shaft Support Type SK

This is the long version of type SH. The aluminum

casing incorporates two Linear Bushes.

Type SH-L-UU: Standard

Type SH-L-M: Stainless steel

Type SH-L: Non-sealed

This is a supporting base for the lightweight aluminum

LM shaft. The slit in the shaft hole enables a shaft to

be tightly bolted.
