*All linear rails are inspected to ensure its smoothness.
Cleaning It is recommended to clean the rails before lubrication. Steps:
1. Put a zip tie through the very last holes to ensure the block can not escape the rail.
2. Fill a glass with some grease solvent/IPA and soak the blocks for at least an hour.
3. Rinse the blocks and wipe the rail from any residue grease with a lint-free cloth.
Lubrication
We recommend to lubricate the ball races and bearing balls with grease, and cover the entire rail itself in a thin coat of grease to prevent oxidation. Recommended lubricants:
– Mobilux EP 1 or EP 2
– HIWIN G05
– Lithium Grease
Note: lubricants containing MoS2 or graphite must not be used.
