A 7B 7-S201602 is a sintered thrust washer made of oil-impregnated bronze, designed for self-lubricating axial load applications. It has an inner diameter of 0.628 inches, an outer diameter of 1.000 inch, and a thickness of 0.0625 inch. The inner diameter tolerance is ±0.005 inch and the outer diameter tolerance is +0.015 inch, -0 inch. The washer uses a sintered bronze material that retains oil to provide lubrication without external lubricants.
A bearing is a device that reduces friction between moving components by preventing metal-to-metal contact while assisting components (shafts, axles, and wheels) to freely rotate around a fixed axis, cutting down on heat generation and the amount of energy that is consumed. By replacing sliding motion with low-friction rolling motion, the life of the rotating components is increased. A bearing also keeps the shaft in the proper position, providing support and alignment and transferring the axial or radial loads to the housing.
The types of bearings that we offer include rolling element bearings, which consist of both ball bearings and roller bearings.
Balls are utilized as the rolling element in ball bearings; a retainer holds the balls in place and allows them to freely rotate. The balls are kept inside channels cut in both the inner and outer races. Because there is no surface contact between the balls and races, precision ball bearings have a lower load capacity for their size than other bearings.
