Hello and welcome to 80/20's product highlight series. Today we are going to take a look at Linear Bearings. These components are great for adding motion to your project. They are easy to install, come in a variety of styles, and are customizable. They're available in both fractional and metric systems, and compatible across a wide range of profile series.
