C-Beam

These high precision linear rails are based on the open-source C-Beam Linear Rail by Openbuilds.

The C shaped profile is based on the V-Slot linear guide system. This profile gives added strength and functionality. It is considered to be a 40mm x 80mm profile and all our standard V-Slot parts and accessories are compatible.

Available in 250mm, 500mm, 750mm , 1000mm, 15000mm, 2400mm, and 2650mm lengths.

Made from 6063 T-5 Aluminum the profile has an extremely smooth linear v groove rail on all 4 sides. It is precise, easy to work with and can be incorporated into many different designs and builds.
