Parker 4601 Ball Bearing Slide Table 88 Lb 2 Inch Travel

Product Description

The PARKER 4601 is a single-axis ball bearing slide table designed for precise linear motion in light industrial and automation applications. It carries a load capacity of 88 pounds and provides 2 inches of travel, making it suited for positioning tasks that require repeatable, low-friction movement. The table measures 4 inches long by 2.62 inches wide by 1 inch high. Eight mounting holes sized at 10-32 thread accept standard fasteners, and the center-to-center mounting hole length is 1 inch. Mechanical technicians and automation integrators are the typical installers for this component.

This slide table is commonly used in single-axis linear positioning assemblies found in light-duty manufacturing equipment, test fixtures, and precision motion stages. The 10-32 threaded mounting holes allow straightforward integration into existing machine frames or custom fabricated bases. Its compact footprint makes it a practical choice for bench-top equipment and confined machine cavities where space is limited.

Key Features

• 88-pound load capacity for light to medium duty positioning tasks
• 2 inches of linear travel for controlled single-axis movement
• Ball bearing design reduces friction and supports repeatable positioning
• 8 mounting holes with 10-32 thread size and 1-inch center-to-center spacing
• Compact profile: 4 inches long by 2.62 inches wide by 1 inch high
• Single-axis table configuration simplifies integration into linear motion systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for single-axis linear motion assemblies requiring a 10-32 mount hole pattern and up to 2 inches of travel.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or automation engineers. Ensure the mating surface is flat and clean before mounting to maintain travel accuracy. De-energize any connected actuators or power sources before handling the slide assembly. Use appropriately sized 10-32 fasteners and do not over-torque to avoid distorting the table base or binding the bearing carriage.
