FlexFit 1537 Modular System: Stainless Steel Linear Rail

Description

The FlexFit 1537S Rail 4010.1537S is the stainless steel grade 430 (1.4016) variant.

Type 430 stainless steel has good corrosion resistance to a large variety of media including nitric acid and some organic acids. The corrosion resistance of type 430 is optimal when it has a highly polished surface. As with other ferritic grades, resistance to stress corrosion cracking is very high. Being ferritic, the 430 rail will have magnetic properties not associated with grade 304. Both steel and stainless rail variants use the same stainless carrier ordered separately.

FlexFit is a modular linear rail system with stainless steel 304 (1.4301) carriers and steel (BZP) or stainless 430 (1.4016) rail. Carriers with mounting holes are supplied pre-set in the rail. The rail is supplied cut to length and pre-drilled ready to use. The stainless steel rails 1529S and 1537S can be supplied in single lengths up to 3,994mm. Please contact us for minimum batch quantities.

FlexFit 1537 rail is available in lengths stocked to 2,400mm. The carriers move independently and there is no limit to how many are fitted to each rail. The carriers are available in either 3 bearing (80kg load) or 5 bearing (110kg load) options. The 5 bearing carrier provides more stability for lateral and vertical applications. The rail grade 430 has excellent properties

The FlexFit system is tested to 100,000m travel with an 80kg load under normal conditions and the carriers show no sign of play throughout the service life.

The rails are supplied in either zinc plated steel or stainless steel. The carriers are supplied only in stainless steel. There are no plastic parts used in this system, so it is suitable for high temperature environments. Unlike other systems, the rails can have customer specific mounting options and hole patterns subject to minimum order quantities. Any amount of carriers can be fitted per rail.

1537 Rail & Carriers are purchased separately and delivered factory fitted. FlexFit is now stocked and available on a same day despatch, with high levels of stock.
