Recommended rail lengths

L = n_B · T – 4

L = rail length (mm)
T = hole spacing (mm)
n_B = number of holes

Ordering example 1:
(up to L_max):
Guide rail size 12, accuracy class P, recommended rail length 771 mm
(30 · T, number of holes n_B = 31, T₁ is identical at both ends of the guide rail)
Ordering data: R0445 202 31, 771 mm

Ordering example 2:
(up to L_max with cover strip):
Guide rail size 12 with cover strip, accuracy class P,
recommended rail length 771 mm (30 · T, number of holes n_B = 31,
T₁ at one end of guide rail = 4.5 mm)
Ordering data: R0445 262 31, 771 mm, T₁ = 4.5 mm
(At the other end of the guide rail T₁ = 16.5 mm for production reasons.)

Ordering example 3:
(composite rail over L_max):
Guide rail size 12, accuracy class N, recommended rail length 1271 mm,
2 sections (50 · T, number of holes n_B = 51, T₁ is identical at both ends of
the composite guide rail)
Ordering data: R0445 204 32, 1271 mm
*2 = Number of sections

Ordering example 4:
(one-piece over L_max):
Guide rail size 12, accuracy class P, recommended rail length 1771 mm
(70 · T, number of holes n_B = 71, T₁ is identical at both ends of the guide rail)
Ordering data: R0445 202 31, 1771 mm

If no T₁ is specified by the customer, both ends of the guide rail will be identical.
The rail lengths were calculated using the formula for recommended rail lengths.

Recommended rail lengths

L = n_B · T – 4

L = rail length (mm)
T = hole spacing (mm)
n_B = number of holes

Ordering example 1:
(up to L_max):

Ordering data: R0455 863 31, 926 mm, T₁ = 4.5 mm
(At the other end of the guide rail T₁ = 21.5 mm mm for production reasons)

Ordering example 3:
(composite rail over L_max):
Guide rail size 15, accuracy class N, recommended rail length 1436 mm,
2 sections (35 · T, number of holes n_B = 36 per row, T₁ is identical at both ends of
the composite guide rail)
Ordering data: R0455 504 32, 1436 mm
*2 = Number of sections
