The BPFLSX-100 is a four-piece brass insert spherical bearing with a 0.6250 inch bore and 1.5625 inch outer diameter, designed for metal-to-metal lubrication with a lubrication groove. The bearing has a ball diameter of 0.687 inch, housing width of 0.875 inch, and radial load capacity of 25,700 lbs. It weighs 0.33 lbs and features a carbon steel outer race and ball with a brass insert. The overall dimensions are 0.6250 inch bore, 1.5625 inch outer width, and 0.875 inch height with a tolerance of ±0.015 across inserts.
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.
