In a linear guide apparatus including an axially extending guide rail, a
slider engaged with the guide rail, and a plurality of rolling elements
loaded into the slider, the linear guide apparatus further includes a
sealing device fixed to the slider in slidable contact with the guide
rail for sealing a clearance existing between the guide rail and the
slider, in which the sealing device includes: a lubricant-containing
polymer member formed of a synthetic resin containing a lubricant, and
having a contact portion contacting with the guide rail to surround the
guide rail, both wing portions, a connecting portion connecting the wing
portions to be C-shaped substantially, and a pair of first recesses
formed in the respective wing portions for fixing the
lubricant-containing polymer member to the slider; a first plate member
fitted to the lubricant-containing polymer member opposed to the slider;
and a pair of first cylindrical members inserted to the respective first
recesses.
