The TSUPER-6 is a closed-type Super Ball Bushing bearing for end-supported applications, with a bore diameter of 0.3750 to 0.3745 inches and an outer diameter of 0.875 to 0.860 inches. It has a total length of 0.699 to 0.689 inches and a maximum ball count of 26. The bearing supports a dynamic load capacity of 100 lbf and is designed for a housing fit of 0.6255 to 0.6250 inches fixed and 0.6260 to 0.6250 inches adjustable, with a clearance of 0.0015C or 0.002C. It features a 0.039-inch ring width and a 0.02-inch radial clearance.
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.
