We recommend to cut the Guiding Tape in an 45° angle (Picture 1). Clearance A absorbs thermal expansion (Table 1). Abbildung 1: Layout and clearance.
After you determined the clearance it is possible to calculate the cutting length Ls : For Rods: Ls = (d + t) * 3,14 - A For Pistons: Ls = (D - t) * 3,14 - A
