Lubrication for rolling elements is carried out within the turnaround passages. For resupply of lubricant, the end seals and end caps have lubricating holes lying in alignment with each other to allow any lubricant injection needle piercing through there. A porous compact impregnated with lubricant fits in a concavity in the end cap. The concavity has an opening to communicate the concavity with the turnaround passage. The porous compact is composed of reservoirs, conjunctive parts, and applicator noses extending through openings to expose their tips into the turnaround passages. The lubricating hole in the end cap has a slit through which the porous compact is exposed to the lubricating hole to allow the lubricant flowing into the porous compact.
