SKF linear units of the LTDR series are guide components that combine a linear bearing with a machined housing, ready to mount on fixed structures. They are used to move loads in a straight line with low friction and high repeatability, in machines that require smooth and precise movements. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this SKF line, an official brand that MR distributes, with technical advice to choose the right unit for the application.

The designation LTDR identifies SKF linear units with an aluminum housing and an integrated bearing. The number that follows the letters indicates the nominal shaft diameter in millimeters: that is why the examples range from 12 to 30. The suffix 2LS indicates that the bearing has double lip sealing at both ends, which improves lubricant retention and protection against contaminants. Thus, LTDR 20-2LS is a unit for a 20 mm shaft with double sealing. This nomenclature allows you to quickly identify the size and the type of protection.

These units are used in industries that need controlled linear movements: automation, machine tools, packaging equipment, material handling and internal transport systems. In Argentina, they are seen in production lines, test benches, positioning devices and special machines. Their compact design and the possibility of direct mounting on profiles or plates make them suitable for retrofits and new developments. Being self-supporting units, they simplify the design and reduce assembly time.

To select correctly, take into account the shaft diameter, the load it will support, the travel speed and the environmental conditions. The 2LS sealing is recommended in environments with dust, chips or humidity, because it maintains lubrication and prevents the entry of particles. During mounting, ensure alignment between the shaft and the housing to avoid lateral stresses and premature wear. The initial lubrication comes from the factory, but it is advisable to check its condition and relubricate according to use. A clean and aligned mounting extends the service life.

As for equivalences, SKF linear units can be interchanged with products from other manufacturers that follow the same standardized dimensions, but it is essential to verify tolerances and the type of sealing. Not all brands use the same nomenclature for double sealing; at SKF, the suffix 2LS is specific. If you need to replace an existing unit, the safest approach is to compare the shaft dimensions, the overall height and the distance between mounting holes. MR Accesorios Industriales can help you find the right equivalent.
