Extended inner ring ball bearings for use in applications requiring low friction and radial load support, manufactured from 440C stainless steel. The 5018 model has a 0.1875 inch bore, a 0.500 inch outside diameter, and a width of 0.1960 inch, with a dynamic load rating of 140 lbf and a static load rating of 59 lbf. The bearing is available in no-shield or double-shield configurations, with radial play specified as 0.0002 to 0.0005 inch. All dimensions and ratings are based on the ABEC 3 tolerance class.
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.
