  The NB's STROKE BUSH is a linear and rotational motion mechanism utilizing the rotational motion of ball elements between an outer cylinder and a shaft. It is compact and can with stand high loading. The retainer is made of a light metal alloy with high wear resistance. Smooth motion is achieved under high-speed and high-acceleration conditions. Although the linear motion is limited to a predetermined stroke distance, the smooth combination of linear and rotational motions is achieved with very little frictional resistance. The NB stroke bush may be conveniently used in a variety of applications.

  NB's SLIDE ROTARY BUSH is a highly accurate rigid component providing smooth continuous linear and rotational motion. Its structure imposes no constraints on either motion. It is much more compact than a standard slide bush with separate rotational bearing.

  Outline of STROKE BUSH
The retainer in the NB stroke bush positions the ball elements in a zigzag arrangement. The inner surface of the outer cylinder is finished by grinding, resulting in the smooth motion of the ball elements. Each of the ball elements is held in a separate hole and smooth motion is achieved for both rotational motion and linear motion. The retainer moves half the distance of the linear motion, therefore, the stroke distance is limited to approximately twice the distance the retainer can travel within the outer cylinder. The actual travel distance should be limited to 80% of the travel distances as listed in the dimensional tables.
>> SR Type
Either Single retainer or double-wide retainer is available, (also available for both sides seal. )

  Outline of SLIDE ROTARY BUSH
SLIDE ROTARY BUSH is composed of retainer fitted into cylindrical steel outer race and is designed to guide steel balls for smooth circulation in its retainer. The retainer is also designed to rotate freely towards radial direction and offers smooth linear and rotary motions.Moreover, there are a attachment compatibility between SLIDE BUSH [SM Type], [SMK Type], SLIDE UNIT [SMA (W) Type ] , [AK (W) Type] and [SMP Type].
SRE type
>> SRE Type - standard type -
This is a cylidrical standard type.
 Line up
>> SREK Type - square flange type -
This is a square flange type of SRE.
 Lineup
>> SMA-R(W) Type - block type -
This is a block type of SRE, also available for double-wide type.
 Lineup
>> AK-R(W) Type - compact block type -
This is a compact block type of SRE, also available for double-wide type.
 Lineup
>> SMP-R Type - pillow block type -
This is a pillow type of SRE. The housing is made of cast iron.
 Lineup
RK type - unlimited linear motion type -
NB's RK type slide rotary bush is a highly accurate rigid component providing smooth continuous linear and rotational motion. Its structure imposes no constraints on either motion. It is much more compact than a standard slide bush with separate rotational bearing.
>> RK Type
This type uses a retainer similar to that used in the SR type stroke bush. This retainer provides the results of smooth rotational motion. The SM type slide bush is also used providing the smooth linear motion. Large ball elements are used enabling the bushing to withstand high loads.
