Motion Control – “Water Dog” Sliders, Underwater Linear Guides
August 13th, 2026 Editor Motion Control – Linear Guides for Under Water Applications!
Motion Control – E. Longmeadow, MA – Linear Motion – Water Dog Sliders are UHMW blocks operating in 303 Stainless Rails. Although water is a poor lubricant, it makes Water Dogs very slick. Water Dog Sliders linear motion guides are FDA Compliant, they do not absorb liquids ( they do not grow ) and they have great abrasion resistance. Water Dogs are by no means precision linear slides. They are simple sliders for water applications where moderate loads and speeds are present. Read more »

Motion Control – Choose Minuteman Linear Bearings When Failure In Adverse Conditions Is NOT An Option!
July 9th, 2026 Editor Motion Control – Minuteman Linear Bearings
Linear Motion – Why are LM76 Minuteman Linear Bearings™ the 1st choice when failure under poor environmental conditions is simply, “NOT AN OPTION?” Because Minuteman Self Lube Linear Bearings™ are exceptionally tough and All Weather Compatible! Unlike linear ball bearings which employ re-circulating balls, LM76 Minuteman Self Lubricating Linear Bearings™ offer a tough ceramic coated shell featuring LM76’s industry leading Minuteman Green Self Lubricating Liner™.
Since there are no balls or mechanical mechanisms in the Minuteman Linear Bearing™, there is no mechanical failure mode. Dirt, dust and debris get wiped away whereas with a linear ball bearing, they get trapped under the seal, filling the ball raceways and freezing the balls – destroying the bearing and grooving the shaft. Minuteman Self Lube Linear Bearing™ can take a pounding from recoil, shock/vibration, vicious environments and high heat.
