Stainless steel gearboxes are widely used in industrial transmission fields due to their high strength and corrosion resistance. However, in actual use, stainless steel gearboxes may still malfunction due to improper design, installation, lubrication or maintenance....
LIN-01K Open Plastic Sliding Membranes
LIN-01K open sliding-membrane series from the LIN plastic linear-bearing family. Designed for quiet, corrosion-resistant dry running; exact dimensions and load data remain model specific.
MOQ: 50 pcs. Minimum order value USD 1,500; mixed orders and trial quantities welcome.
The open profile provides clearance for supported-shaft arrangements where a closed sleeve cannot pass over the support web. The opening in the sleeve changes the mounting conversation: supported round shafts need clearance for the rail beneath the shaft, something a closed membrane cannot provide.
The LIN family is intended for lubricant-free service. Its source data records µ = 0.05–0.15 on steel in dry conditions, with 0.4 N/mm²·m/s as the maximum PV product. For thermal screening, keep steady duty within -50/+90 °C. The +120 °C upper figure belongs to brief exposure, not continuous operation.

Data boundary: The figures above are published family properties. Exact dimensions, housing fits and load values for LIN-01K stay model specific and should come from the selected catalogue row.
Use Cases
Open membranes are a natural fit for continuously supported round shafts. Long automation spans and guarding systems can benefit because the rail carries the shaft while the liner clears the support web.
For LIN-01K, corrosion resistance and lubricant-free travel can simplify machine housekeeping. The catalogue also notes that the LIN material can be cleaned with disinfecting solution, which is useful context for equipment where oil migration would be undesirable.
Selection Priorities
Confirm the support-web width and its position under the shaft before choosing the K version. The sleeve opening needs real clearance throughout the complete travel.
After the geometry is identified, compare the real duty with the dry-running material limits. Record load, sliding speed, stroke, shaft finish and operating temperature in the RFQ so LIN-01K is checked as a system rather than as a bore-size lookup.
Installation Review
Orient the opening over the support rail before final assembly. A small rotational error can make the liner touch the support web, which feels like bearing friction but is really geometric interference.
This family does not depend on scheduled grease replenishment. Inspection should instead look for abnormal clearance, embedded abrasive particles, heat and uneven wear; those symptoms often point to shaft or alignment issues around the LIN-01K installation.
