• Through bolt
• Toe clip
• Tee nut
Toe clips are supplied with the catalog number MPAS-x6xxx linear stages, and
covered types of the catalog number MPAS-x8xxx and MPAS-x9xxx linear stages.
Refer to the following table for an illustration of each fastener type.

Securing a linear stage from beneath the mounting surface
(1) Through bolt mounting is not an option for the catalog number MPAS-x6xxxx-xxxxx (150 mm) linear stages.
(2) The Tee nut mount for a catalog number MPAS-x8xxxx-xxxxx (200 mm) linear stage is a square nut in a T-slot.
(3) Where x is the frame size of a stage, 6 = MPAS-x6xxxx-xxxxx (150 mm), 8 = MPAS-x8xxxx-xxxxx (200 mm), 9 = MPAS-x9xxxx-xxxxx (250 mm).
(4) You supply the bolts.
