BNDIRXM172216 is an alloy steel inner race for needle bearings, hardened to HRC 58 min, with a 17 mm bore and 22.007 mm outer diameter, designed for press-fit mounting on soft shafts and usable as a hardened bushing. The bore and outer diameter tolerances are H6 and h6, respectively, per the metric tolerance chart for dimensions over 18 and up to 30 mm. The outer diameter is ground to 0.4 µm AA surface roughness, and all corners are chamfered for ease of assembly.
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.
