Tamiya 70258 Universal Slider Set - Educational Motion Kit  [70258]

Compact Slider Kit for Mechanical Demonstrations

The Tamiya 70258 Universal Slider Set is a practical part for construction kits focused on learning and experimentation. It helps users build working linkages to study the conversion of rotational motion into straight-line travel. Suitable for makers, teachers and students looking for a clear mechanical example.

Operation and Mechanics

The set employs a slider-crank arrangement to change rotary input from gearboxes into linear displacement. Its straightforward layout features a slider base with attachment holes and rollers to enable neat, compact assemblies. The component is aimed at projects that require repeatable linear motion.

Compatibility and Use Cases

Compatible with both straight and curved universal arms, the slider can pass through 20mm gaps, giving designers flexibility. A joint piece connects the slider to the universal arm and doubles as the rotation axis, allowing varied mounting options.
