Telescopic rails - a smart solution for limited spaces

Telescopic light from RollcoTelescopic rails are suitable for industrial applications where space is limited. In humid or corrosive environments, it may be appropriate to choose a stainless-steel version.

Telescopic rails – for maximum access

Telescopic rails are used in industrial applications to enable extendable movements. They are designed to provide smooth and stable expansion where space and ease of access are important factors. Telescopic rails are usually made of steel, stainless steel or aluminium. The aluminium rails combine low weight with high load-bearing capacity.

Telescopic rails use balls or sometimes plain bearings to minimize friction and provide smooth movement. They often have high load capacities and can carry heavy loads depending on the design and size. Telescopic rails are stable and provide robust support even at maximum extension. Thanks to high-quality materials and precision manufacturing, they often have a long service life.

Telescopic rail 3560 – a stainless-steel alternative

Telescopic rail 3560

Stainless steel telescopic rails are used in environments where corrosion resistance, hygiene and long service life are essential. The telescopic slide 3560 is made of stainless steel and has a two-stage expansion with 100% extension. It is available with stroke lengths of up to 700 mm. With a capacity of up to 60 kg/pair, it is suitable for many common warehouse and workshop applications.

Common applications for stainless steel telescopic rails

  • Food production: Used in machinery and storage areas where hygiene requirements are high.
  • Pharmaceutical industry: To ensure easy cleaning of equipment and keep it free from contamination.
  • Corrosive environments: Where chemicals or salt water can cause rust on ordinary steel components.
  • Humid or wet environments: For example, in the food industry, in marine equipment or cold storage.
  • Design and aesthetics: Stainless steel is often used where visible components should be both functional and stylish, for example in furniture design.
  • Public installations: In applications that must withstand both wear and weather exposure, such as telescopic rails in benches or storage solutions in public spaces.
