SK16 End Support For 16mm Linear Bearing Shaft

SK16 (16mm) SK Series Shaft Support for Medium-Duty Applications

The SK16 Series shaft support, measuring 48mm in length, 16mm in width, and 44mm in height, and constructed from lightweight aluminium, provides robust and precise mounting for your 16mm linear shafts. Its compact yet rigid design is an excellent choice for a variety of applications throughout the UK & Ireland and beyond, streamlining the assembly process for design engineers.

SK16 Key Features & Benefits:

• Compact Design: The efficient form factor of the SK16 support helps maintain a streamlined machine layout. This is particularly beneficial for mid-range CNC milling machines and larger router sleds, where balancing structural integrity with an optimised footprint is essential.

• Inherently Rigid: This SK16 shaft support offers strong support and stability for your 16mm linear shaft. It is ideal for applications demanding reliable performance in automated assembly equipment and for supporting linear motion in industrial 3D printing systems that require higher precision and stability.

• Lightweight Construction: Manufactured from high-grade aluminium, the SK16 shaft support is remarkably lightweight. This contributes to a lower overall machine mass, which is advantageous for moderate-speed gantry systems and for equipment where reducing inertia and power consumption are design priorities.

• Easy Mounting: The intuitive axial tightening bolt on the SK16 support ensures a quick and secure fit with minimal effort, saving time during machine setup. This efficiency is important for efficient production line installations and for maintenance procedures that require rapid component changes.
