NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard which is identical to ISO 24393 : 2008 'Rolling bearings - Linear motion rolling bearings - Vocabulary' issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on recommendation of the Bearings Sectional Committee and approval of the Production and General Engineering Department.

Various types of linear motion rolling bearings and linear guidance systems have been developed and produced by many manufacturers in recent years. Therefore, this Indian Standard has been developed as the initial stage to unify and clarify the names for linear guidance systems, linear motion rolling bearings, subassemblies, parts, accessories, and technologies.

The text of ISO standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, they should be read as 'Indian Standard'; and

b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
