BPFWSS-9T is a four-piece, wide-series precision spherical bearing with a 0.5625 in. bore, 1.1250 in. outer diameter, 0.687 in. width, and 0.536 in. race width, designed for low-friction oscillating motion. The bearing features a 440C stainless steel race, heat-treated 17-4 PH stainless steel liner, and a bonded PTFE fabric liner. It has a dynamic load rating of 26600 lbs., a static load rating of 5370 lbs., and a maximum oscillating load limit of 18100 lbs. The ball misalignment angle is 10°, and the no-load breakaway torque is 1.0 to 5.0 lbin. The part weighs 0.135 lbs., with bore and outer diameters concentric within 0.005 in. T.I.R.
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.
