The BPFLSX-120 is a four-piece brass insert spherical bearing with a 0.7500 in. bore, 2.2500 in. outer diameter, and 1.250 in. height, designed for metal-to-metal lubricated applications. The outer race is made of heat-treated 52100 alloy steel with corrosion resistance, and the insert is brass. It has a radial static load capacity of 47600 lbs. and weighs 0.97 lbs. The part features a lubrication hole and groove, with a ball diameter of 0.937 in. and a housing flat width of 1.625 in.
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.
