    Linear slides, housed in anodized aluminum, have a built-in repairable air cylinder, and a combination of holes for rigid mounting in tight spaces: counterbored tapped thru-holes on the bottom and rear and slide tapped holes with a slipfit dowel hole and slot for precise alignment.

    Toolbar has counterbored tapped thru-holes on top, front, and bottom faces for quick tooling attachment. Front face has slip-fit dowel hole and slot for repeatable tool alignment. The slides come in 12, 20, and 32-mm bores with to 10-in. strokes and 3/8 to -in.-diameter guide shafts. Available options include a magnetic piston for position sensing, adjustable extend stroke, and blank toolbar for custom hole pattern.
