Are SL2 rails available in different grades similar to the GV3 product?
No. In order to make the rails as corrosion resistant as possible they are only available precision ground on all surfaces.
Is the SL2 product suitable for washdown environments?
The material used for both the bearings and rails is a martensitic stainless steel which is hardenable by heat treating, which gives it excellent wear characteristics and corrosion resistant properties. With proper care and maintenance, the SL2 product has been used successfully in many washdown environments.
Are the SL2 carriages available in stainless steel?
Yes, they can be provided as a custom part.
Can the SL2 rails be ordered configured like the PRT system?
Yes, the ring and track systems can be ordered in the same stainless steel material as the SL2 product.
Is the SL2 product suitable for food grade applications?
Yes, a simple substitution of food grade lubricant on the cap wiper felt will allow for use in most food grade applications.
