Male plastic rod end bearings with a 25 mm bore and M24 x 2 thread are maintenance-free, self-lubricating components composed of a thermoplastic body and L280® polymer ball, designed to compensate for alignment errors and edge loads. The bearing operates from -40°C to +130°C and has a maximum tensile strength of 7500 N, a maximum radial load capacity of 1899 N short-term and 947 N long-term, and a maximum pivot angle of 22°. The overall length is 125 mm, with a body width of 22 mm and a threaded length of 31 mm. The product is rated for right-hand or left-hand threading, specified by suffix.
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.
