NS Series
NS Series
Uses SUS316 stainless for better corrosion level of resistance than SS Series. Use in circumstances requiring greater corrosion resistance than SS Series.

AS Series
AS Series
Pins and rollers make use of precipitation hardened stainless steel for 1.5x the maximum allowable load of SS Series. Nevertheless, AS Series has less corrosion resistance than SS Series.
