The S62GFRM0609R is a maintenance-free female plastic rod end bearing with a 6 mm bore and M6 right-hand thread. The body is made of thermoplastic and the ball is made of L280® polymer. It operates from -40°C to +130°C, compensates for alignment errors and edge loads, and has a maximum static tensile strength of 1397 N, a maximum radial load of 698 N short-term and 396 N long-term, and a maximum torque of 1.49 N·m. The bearing has a pivot angle of 29° and a shaft size range of 5.970 mm to 6.000 mm.
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.
