The S99LBOM040080S is a metric open-type linear ball bearing with a 40 mm bore, 62 mm outer diameter, and 80 mm length, designed for low-friction linear motion with high positioning accuracy and load capacity. It contains five ball circuits, uses AISI 52100 steel for the sleeve and balls, and has a Duracon M90 retainer. The bearing has a dynamic load rating of 2160 N and a static load rating of 4020 N. It features seals at both ends, as indicated by the 'S' suffix to the base catalog number S99LBOM040080. The tolerance for bore diameter is +0.013/-0.002 mm, outer diameter is 0/-0.013 mm, and length is 0/-0.300 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.
