THE TRUNCATED CYLINDER WITH BLIND HOLES IS A LOW-COST MODIFIED CYLINDER WITH HIGH MOUNTING STRENGTH. THIS VERSION IS USUALLY PINNED AND GLUED TO HOLD IT IN POSITION. THIS DESIGN IS OFTEN EMPLOYED IN PRODUCTION APPLICATIONS WHERE LARGE NUMBERS OF KINEMATIC COMPONENTS REQUIRE MAXIMUM ECONOMY.
THESE HARDENED AND DIMENSIONALLY STABILIZED STAINLESS STEEL CYLINDERS ARE PRECISION GROUND AND MACHINE LAPPED TO PROVIDE EXCELLENT CYLINDRICITY WITH CLOSE DIMENSIONAL TOLERANCE.
THE HIGHLY-REGULAR LOW MICRO INCH SURFACE TEXTURE GENERATED BY THE MACHINE LAPPING LEADS TO LOW HYSTERESIS AND EXCELLENT REPEATABILITY.
TWO PARALLEL MOUNTED CYLINDERS FORM A VERY HIGH QUALITY SUBSTITUTE FOR THE HARD-TO-MANUFACTURE VEE GROOVE.
THE REDUCED PROFILE HEIGHT, THE ADDED STABILITY OF THE FLAT BASE, AND THE HIGHER LOAD-CARRYING CAPACITY ARE ALL GOOD SELLING POINTS FOR THIS DESIGN.
