TSPB-6 is a closed-type Super Ball Bushing pillow block for end-supported applications, with a nominal bore diameter of 0.375 inch. It measures 1.75 inches in length, 1.31 inches in width, and 1.438 inches in height, with a 0.22-inch lubrication access hole and a 0.72-inch mounting hole diameter. The unit has a dynamic load capacity of 100 lbf and a mass of 0.13 pound, and is secured with a #6 bolt. Lubrication is provided via an oil fitting. The design includes seals at both ends.
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.
