The A 7Z 6MF1808E is a nonmetallic bearing block with an 8 mm bore, featuring a molded nylon 101 body and a machined Ertalyte TX bearing. It is self-lubricating, electrically insulating, and designed for low-cost, high-performance applications. The block has two mounting holes with a diameter of 6.7 mm, spaced 16 mm apart, and measures 38 mm in length, 28 mm in width, and 19 mm in height. Projections follow ISO conventions.
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.
