Extended inner ring ball bearings with a 0.25 in bore and 0.375 in outside diameter are designed for low-friction rotational support in precision applications. The bearing is made of 440C stainless steel and has a static load rating of 17 lbf and a dynamic load rating of 37 lbf, with no shield configuration. It is lubricated with oil meeting MIL-PRF-6085A. The bearing has an ABEC 3 tolerance grade and dimensions matching the 3725 catalog code: inner diameter 0.375 in, outer diameter 0.204 in, width 0.125 in, and land diameters referenced but not guaranteed.
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.
