Osborn Load Rails

for maximum
design flexibility.

Maximum track length is specified

below. Track length tolerance is 1/16
Osborn Load Rails offer allowable rail
loadings of up to 71,500 lbs (317450
N) per roller for maximum design
flexibility.

For example - to specify a 4 high Vtrack 28-1/2 long with a clearance

hole for a cap screw, the part
number is: LRTV-20284-1.

Track Requirements
Track Alignment
The track and roller should be aligned so that
the roller tread lies flat on the track surface.

Flanged

V-Grooved

Track Capacity
For steel track of 180,000 PSI tensile strength
(Rc=40), refer to the track capacity chart to find
the track load capacity for the style and size
of roller to be used. For steel track other than
180,000 PSI tensile strength, first refer to the
track capacity factor chart for the type of steel
to be used. Then multiply the track capacity
for the roller being used by the track capacity
factor for the steel to be used.

Installation Notes
Mounting Considerations
Mounting holes should be machined to the nominal stud size
within +.001/-.000 (+.025 mm/-.000 mm) tolerance.
When properly aligned, the roller stud should slip into the
mounting member. Do not force the stud into the mounting
member as damage to the roller may occur.
When mounting rollers, do not torque the jam nuts beyond
what is recommended or damage may occur. Be sure that the
mounting member is of sufficient thickness to support the
applied loads.
