The S99LBCM050100 is a closed-type linear ball bearing with a 50 mm bore, 80 mm outer diameter, 100 mm length, and six ball circuits. It features a sleeve and balls made of AISI 52100 steel and a Duracon M90 retainer. The bearing supports a dynamic load capacity of 3820 N and a static load capacity of 7940 N. Tolerances are specified as 0/-0.012 mm for bore diameter, 0/-0.016 mm for outer diameter, and 0/-0.3 mm for length. It is designed for low friction, high positioning accuracy, high load capacity, quiet movement, and long travel life.
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.
