Low-profile guide rails drylin® N

System heights of 6 to 12mm characterise the drylin® N low-profile guide systems. This makes the drylin® N aluminium rails with plastic carriages ideal for applications with small installation spaces. The low mass also means efficient energy and emission consumption on the one hand, and transportable system solutions on the other.
