BPSLHS-160 is a two-piece precision stainless steel spherical bearing with a 1.0000 inch bore and 1.7500 inch outer diameter, designed for low-friction rotation in mechanical assemblies. It features a 0.797 inch ball diameter, a 1.500 inch outside width, and a static radial load capacity of 83,000 lbs. The bearing is constructed with 300 series stainless steel outer race and heat-treated 440C stainless steel balls, and includes a lubrication groove. The chamfer dimension is +0.015/-0.000 inch.
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.
