S62GFRM1823R is a female plastic rod end bearing with an 18mm bore and M18 x 1.5 right-hand thread, featuring a thermoplastic body and L280® polymer ball. It operates from -40°C to +130°C, compensates for alignment errors and edge loads, and has a maximum static tensile strength of 4599 N, a maximum radial load of 1597 N short-term and 796 N long-term, and a maximum torque of 45 N•m. The bearing is maintenance-free and self-lubricating, with a hexagonal stem and overall dimensions of 46mm length, 31mm outer diameter, 16.5mm width, and 21mm thread engagement length.
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.
