The SR type stroke bush is a linear and rotational motion bearing that combines high-speed linear stroke with rotary motion using a zigzag-arranged ball retainer made of light metal alloy, mounted in a heat-treated and ground high-carbon chromium bearing steel outer cylinder. It supports strokes up to approximately twice the retainer travel length and is available in inner contact diameters from 6 mm to 100 mm. The design allows for combined motion with low friction and includes one lubrication hole per oil groove. Maximum operating temperature is -20 ℃ to 110 ℃. Mounting requires proper shaft fit (k5, m5 for shaft; H6, H7 for housing) and surface hardness of at least 58 HRC with surface roughness under Ra 0.4. Sealed variants (SR-UU) are available with dual rubber seals. The maximum stroke is limited to 80% of the dimensional table value to prevent retainer slippage.
The NB STROKE BUSH is a linear and rotational motion mechanism utilizing the rotational motion of ball elements between an outer cylinder and a shaft. It is compact and can withstand high loading. The retainer is made of a light metal alloy with high wear resistance. Smooth motion is achieved under high-speed and high-acceleration conditions. Although the linear motion is limited to a specific stroke length, the combined rotation and stroke motion is achieved with very little frictional resistance. The NB STROKE BUSH can be conveniently used in a variety of applications.
NB linear stroke bushings consist of a high-carbon chromium bearing steel outer cylinder with a precision-ground inner surface, a light metal alloy retainer that keeps ball elements in position, and a stopper ring and inner seal to prevent contamination. While this type of design limits the amount of linear motion stroke, it offers many benefits, such as:
