    I need some bearings What type of rails??

    I need some bearings for my gantry on a router table I purchased.

    I'm not sure what brand of rails these are. Overall dimensions of the rail is 36mm

    I imagine the previous owner got these in Australia.


    All help with a supplier appreciated

    After reading many posts I have found ou they are called v bearings.

    Could I assume that they are #4 size with a 4 stamped on the side??

    Thanks Greg,

    That is the stuff. I will give them a call about the bearings.

    The rail is incredibly exspensive.

    Cheers
