Telescopic linear slides GN 2406 consist of two slides linked by an intermediate profile. They are used when the lateral space requires a small width, and when large extension is required. The S-shape of the intermediate profile gives the configuration a high degree of sturdiness.
The rails and the intermediate profile are equal in length. Both rails can be extended so that an extension is reached which is longer than the base length l1.
External elements should limit the maximum sliding distance; the supports of the rail have been designed to guard against the inadvertent extraction of the runner from the rail.
