Constructing heavy duty sliding or lifting systems requires specialised steel profiles and bearings. Euro-Bearings has been supplying such products for many years and have recently updated their  “Combined Roller Bearing and Mating Steel Profiles” Catalogue.

This now lists:

• Bearings

• Mounting plates

• Steel profiles  (both C and H sections)

• Flanged Clamps (new in this issue)

• Data for selecting the correct product for the job

• How to adjust the adjustable bearings

The catalogue is available as a download from: http://www.euro-bearings.com/pdfcat.htm. Click on “Combined Roller Bearings 2015”.

The  “Mating Steel Profiles” section of the catalogue now lists the different bearings that can be used with that profile making it easier for the designer to select.

This facility can also be accessed online on this page: http://www.euro-bearings.com/cr1.htm  by clicking on any bearing part number.

This now means the designer can either work from the selected channel or the selected bearing and see the relating components.

CAD files of the steel profiles are available to download in .dwg format from http://www.euro-bearings.com/profiles.htm – click on any profile reference.
