Ball bearing control cables

Motion transfer

  • push-pull
  • The motion is transferred by the central rail which moves between two lines of stainless steel balls. The balls are positioned by two mobile cages moving between outer rails. All components are made of stainless steel and are fitted into a steel casing and protected by a vinyl cover from corrosion and contamination.

Unique characteristics

  • High efficiency (85 to 90 %)
  • Transfer of important loads
  • Accurate and reliable
  • Unaffected by temperature variations
  • Flexible in any layout
