Thin Wall Light Load Thrust Bearings

Available in a variety of standard and custom inch and metric sizes our thin section bearings offer high performance in corrosive and non corrosive environments where space devoted to bearings is at a minimum.

Thin wall light load thrust bearings.

Within their basic load ratings these extra light bearings are capable of radial thrust or combined loads and are available in open. Mainly used to bear radial load but when the radial clearance of the bearing is increased it has a certain performance of angular contact ball bearing and can bear combined radial and axial load. Their unique shape creates a permanent secure hold in thin panels. Extra light lightweight bearing.

Light duty dry running thrust bearings. Selecting the right thin wall bearing for each project requires detailed knowledge of the. However that singular part may be built from different materials and layered and combined into a load carrying system. A light contact.

The thin section sealed bearings line consists of five series available with integral seals pre lubricated with grease from the factory and in stock for quick delivery. Thin section bearings as listed below are available open shielded or sealed. Sr series inch dimensional series with bore sizes ranging from 3 8 to 1 5 8 6700 series metric dimensional series for very limited space applications and very light loads. Ast has nearly 300 different models of thin section ball bearings organized into the following numerical series.

Thin wall bearings are distinguished from rolling element bearings primarily by the fact that they consist of only one part. Bearings swivel to accommodate up to 5 of shaft misalignment. Dynamic load capacity is the maximum load. Not for use with plastic panels.

High load dry running thrust bearings. On startup friction causes the bronze to release a thin layer of oil on the bearing s surface. Chrome steel is the standard material for ball bearings thanks to its high load capacity and low noise properties. Chemical resistant dry running thrust bearings.

Use where high loads and speeds are not required. A metal backing adds strength. These bearings stand up to a wider range of chemicals than other dry running thrust bearings. Silverthin lightweight bearings are perfect for applications where an extra light bearing is required as used in arospace applications.

Nitrile rubber sealing is standard with other sealing element materials also available. Inch size thin section sealed bearings provide solutions for keeping anti friction bearings clean and well lubricated. Thin wall ball bearings are simple in structure and easy to use. 6800 series metric dimensional series for limited space applications and light loads.

Kaydon kt series tapered bearings offer advantages to designs that would benefit from the many unique advantages of a thin section bearing but require a bearing of higher capacity and. Unlike other sleeve bearings these do not need to be fully inserted into a housing. Chrome steel thin section bearings with a steel retainer and a suitable lubricant can be used at temperatures of 120 c constant or up to 150 c intermittent.
