For several years R. A. Rodriguez has marketed the UNITEC brand of ballscrew support bearings designed for high performance machine tool applications. Now in addition to the high load and exceptional performance capabilities of this needle roller bearing range, the company has introduced a new range of ball bearings to meet more general high precision needs of ballscrews.

Sourced from the R. A. Rodriguez German facility, the DRF/DRN double row ball bearings for screw drives are high precision components with a contact angle of 60

Standard precision for the DRF/DRN range is the high accuracy p5/p6 precision class. For lower precision applications a commercial series of the DRF/DRN bearings is also available; this range carries the suffix NP.

Eight types of bearing support units are also introduced in block or flange design.

Full details of the newly extended range of bearings for ballscrew drives from R.A. Rodriguez is contained in a newly published brochure that is available from www.rarodriguez.co.uk
