Parker 4002 Precision Ball Bearing Linear Stage 25 Lb

Product Description

The PARKER 4002 is a single-axis precision ball bearing linear positioning table designed for applications requiring smooth, repeatable linear motion under moderate load. It offers a 25-pound load capacity and 0.5 inches of travel, making it suitable for laboratory instruments, optical assemblies, test fixtures, and light industrial automation setups. The table features a center drive configuration and rides on precision ball bearing guides for low-friction, accurate linear displacement. Eight 6-32 threaded mounting holes are provided for secure installation on a variety of base structures. The overall envelope measures 1.75 inches long by 1.75 inches wide by 0.75 inches high, and the assembled unit weighs 0.5 pounds. Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or automation engineers.

The PARKER 4002 is used in single-axis linear positioning tasks found in research, inspection, and precision assembly environments. Its compact footprint and 6-32 mount hole pattern make it a practical fit for space-constrained setups such as microscope stages, sensor positioning rigs, and small-format test fixtures. The center drive design allows the actuating mechanism to be located centrally along the table axis, which is useful when symmetrical loading or space layout requires it. The 8-hole mounting pattern allows flexible orientation on mounting surfaces.

Key Features

• 25-pound load capacity for moderate-duty linear positioning tasks
• 0.5 inches of linear travel with precision ball bearing guide system
• Center drive configuration for symmetrical actuation
• Eight 6-32 threaded mounting holes for versatile installation
• Compact envelope: 1.75 inches long x 1.75 inches wide x 0.75 inches high
• Single-axis table configuration for straightforward linear motion setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision positioning component for single-axis linear motion applications where a 6-32 mount hole pattern and center drive configuration are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or automation engineers using standard hand tools compatible with 6-32 fastener hardware. Ensure the mounting surface is flat and clean before securing the table to prevent binding or misalignment during travel. Do not exceed the rated 25-pound load capacity, as overloading can damage the ball bearing guides and reduce positioning accuracy. Verify that the drive mechanism is aligned with the center drive interface before applying any load or motion input.
