Way Covers Protect in Dusty Environments
- Way Cover Introduction
- UniSlide® Assemblies
- BiSlide® Assemblies
Way Covers protect the slider and dovetail base from dust, dirt and grit that could hamper the efficient operation of the slide, thereby extending the life of the slide. Please note: the covers reduce the amount of contamination that reaches the slide, but do not eliminated it entirely.
Way covers can only be used in horizontal applications and at a maximum travel distance of 40 inches.
