The Model SHW is a four-way equal load type LM Guide that features a wide LM rail with a low center of gravity, which provides excellent resistance to Mc moments (in the rolling direction). The standard lineup for this product has now been expanded with the aforementioned lubrication options that were previously made available only on a case-by-case basis.

The block types that come with these options are the standard type with flange (CAN), standard type without flange (CRN), and long type without flange (HRN). Existing block types that do not come with these specifications (CA/CR/HR) will continue to be available as part of the standard lineup. This provides customers with ample options to choose from when selecting the optimal lubrication specifications for their operating conditions and equipment configuration.

THK will continue to use the technology and know-how we have cultivated as a top manufacturer of linear motion guides to develop and provide products suited to our customers' needs.
