Profile Steel C series

Regardless of the fastening method chosen, you should design your plant so that the material can expand. The easiest and most efficient fastening method is to fasten the guide using our steel C profiles. Unlike metals, thermoplastics are particularly predisposed to an increase/reduction in length when temperature variations occur. Mounting a guide in a steel C profile makes sense because of the freedom of movement afforded to the slide bar. This method also makes it easy to replace plastic guides. Steel C profiles also act as stable fasteners and can be welded or screwed on as required. We recommend the use of DIN screws or special assembly using T-head bolts (see page 66). We also offer fixing of steel C profiles with stud welding bolts.
