As Makers who love to build, craft and create with our hands, a lot of us grew up with iconic building blocks such as LEGO, Meccano and other fantastic toys. However, now that we’re older, it’s obvious that these toys are just that – toys – and if we want to continue building things, we need to start looking into serious mechanical components.

As Makers who love to build, craft and create with our hands, a lot of us grew up with iconic building blocks such as LEGO, Meccano and other fantastic toys. However, now that we’re older, it’s obvious that these toys are just that – toys – and if we want to continue building things, we need to start looking into serious mechanical components.
With this in mind, we would like to introduce our Linear Motion Components category, which is dedicated to what we like to call “LEGO for Grown-Ups”, and is filled with strong, rigid, and easy to assemble mechanical components. These include parts like Leadscrews and Smooth Rods, Bearings, Belts and Pullets, as well as Couplers and Supports to easily attach parts together – and all of these can be used together to create truly marvellous projects that knock the socks off of all your old LEGO and Meccano projects.
It’s time to put that creative thinking cap back on like when you were a kid, and get back into the spirit of building “Awesome Things” with our range of Linear Motion Components. Additionally, if you want to really step up your projects, consider looking at our Motors / Controllers Category, as well as our Modular Extrusions Category, which will certainly pique your interest if you love to build.
LessThis 610x6mm GT2 Timing Belt is designed to convert rotational power from various motors such as stepper motors and servo motors into linear motion.
A GT2 twin timing belt pulley with 20 teeth and an 8mm bore is used to drive two GT2 6mm timing belts to transfer motion between one another.
This 825x6mm GT2 Timing Belt is designed to convert rotational power from various motors such as Stepper Motors and Servo Motors into linear motion.
This 6mm T2.5 Timing Belt is designed to convert rotational power from various motors such as stepper motors and servo motors into linear motion.
These POM (Delrin) TR8x8 Anti-Backlash Leadscrew Nuts are specially designed for low friction and long life with reliable dimensional stability.
Standard aluminium T2.5 Timing Pulley for CNC machines and 3D printers.
This 840x6mm GT2 Timing Belt is designed to convert rotational power from various motors such as stepper motors and servo motors into linear motion.
These POM (Delrin) TR8x8 Leadscrew Nuts are designed for high precision, low friction and a long lifespan with impressive dimensional stability.
Pre-cut stainless steel threaded rod. Sold per meter. We can cut to size required but you have to buy it per metre.
Pre-cut galvanised steel threaded rod. Sold per meter. We can cut to size required but you have to buy it per metre.
Reliable and Durable Sealed Radial Ball Bearings, designed to the 625RS standard with a 5mm inner diameter, 16mm outer diameter and 5mm height.
This TR8X8 Metric Lead Screw is 515mm long with an 8mm Lead, 2mm pitch and 4 starts - Ideal for high torque, high speed power transmission.
Pre-cut galvanised steel threaded rod. Used as a leadscrew on the Prusa i3. The 5mm diameter stops variations along the length of the rod affecting the x-axis too much.
These ceramic and steel 608 Hybrid Bearings are built for high speed, low weight applications like fidget spinners, inline skates and musical instruments.
These 5mm Bore 20 Tooth Pulleys are compatible with 6mm wide T2.5 timing belts, to transfer rotational force into accurate linear motion along an axis.
