Actually tapered gibs are a pain if they dont have a screw both ends,
Those with a single screw are in a slot so they can resist the gibs
tendency to self tighten and for removal of the gib. Broken or bent
gib screws seem to be a regular problem with taper gibs.

There are some very similar units on Ebay as well, but at higher prices.
Good to know that these work well..

Thanks Philipp,
This is for an industrial machine and the competition is a Baluff sensor
which measures over an 8" stroke. The quote for the Baluff device came
back at almost $1200.
So it shouldn't be too difficult to beat that price, I hope! :-)
I sent Siko an inquiry.
