Product Overview: LME 30 Linear Motion Bearing
The LME 30 is a high-precision linear motion bearing, engineered to provide smooth and accurate linear movement along a 30mm shaft. With standard dimensions of 30mm bore diameter, 47mm outer diameter, and 68mm length, this component is a staple in the LME Series of European metric standard Linear Motion Bearings. Its design incorporates rows of recirculating balls that run along a precision-ground shaft, drastically reducing friction and ensuring consistent, low-noise operation. This makes it an essential part for a wide range of automated machinery and precision equipment.
As a leading supplier of industrial components, we provide LME 30 linear bearings that adhere to strict manufacturing standards. These bearings are designed for seamless integration into systems requiring reliable and efficient linear guidance, such as 3D printers, CNC machines, and automated assembly lines.
