What they say

Hide

this design is unique because the nuts and the spindle pull from the back to the front. And then we have thrust bearings integrated into the casting. So, that it's really smooth and easy to turn. There's no binding motion. Most of the time this nut is attached to the base right here. >> Okay. >> And with this because we're pulling from the back, now we can have a completely boxed slide instead of a C channel.
