💡 What is a linear bushing used for in linear slide units and light-duty motion systems? A linear bushing supports and guides rotating shafts to deliver smooth, low-friction linear movement. - Used in linear slide units, rail guides, and compact actuators where a sealed ball bearing may be unnecessary. - Handy for light automation, conveyor guides, and small CNC axes that prioritize wear resistance and compact size. - Opt for high carbon steel bushings for strength; consider ceramic or sealed ball bearing options for corrosion, higher speeds, or dirty environments.
