In this paper, the bristle model proposed by C.Canudas et.al. for frictional characteristics of sliding bearings is applied for linear ball guideways. A method for determining unknown 6 parameters of this model has been proposed. The simulated results using the bristle model agreed with the experimental results about the following three kinds of characteristics : the nonlinear spring behavior curve (static characteristic), frequency response and step response (dynamic characteristics). Therefore, the bristle model can estimate the frictional behavior of the linear ball guideways.
