Boxway Linear Air Slides

The Original: Versatile, Durable, and Still the Strongest We Carry

The New Way® Boxway Linear Air Slide is our original air slide. Designed to balance versatility, durability, precision, and load-bearing performance. The slide features a low-profile linear slide rail, and a slightly wider stage than the New Way dovetail. This gives the Boxway Linear Air Slide our largest load-carrying capacity, boasting an incredible 600lb maximum weight. The wide track also provides precision guidance, delivering enhanced precision to any linear slide assembly application. The guide bar for the boxway can be end-supported, or continuously-supported to prevent sag in longer-span configurations.

  • LOW-PROFILE DESIGN
  • HIGH LOAD CAPACITY
  • MULTIPLE SLIDE LENGTHS
  • CLEANROOM COMPLIANT
  • PRECISE MOTION
  • CRASH RESISTANT
