FAQ

What is the significance of the ‘C1’ preload designation?

The ‘C1’ designation indicates a light preload. This is applied to the rolling elements (balls) to reduce clearance, increase rigidity, and improve positioning accuracy. A light preload is suitable for applications with low to moderate loads and vibrations.

Is this MLFG18C1HS2 carriage interchangeable with other brands’ size 18 carriages?

No. While the size (18) might be standard, the internal geometry, ball race design, and mounting dimensions are proprietary to IKO’s MLF series. It is only interchangeable with other IKO MLF series C1 specification carriages of the same size and should be used on a corresponding IKO MLF18 rail.

What type of lubrication is recommended for the MLF series?

IKO recommends using a high-quality lithium-based grease for their linear motion guides. The carriage is typically pre-lubricated from the factory. For re-lubrication, ensure the grease is compatible and apply it through the grease nipple or as per the maintenance manual for your machine.
