A hydrostatic bearing assembly highly adaptable to different types of applications, with the actual guiding and bearing functions being associated with guiding rails and separate carrying elements comprising separate bearing elements, the separately produced bearing elements having pressure pockets pressurized by a pressure agent, so as to permit a reduction in production costs and a better adaptation to required conditions of play so as to achieve a higher load bearing capacity.
