A 7Y55-P2512 is an ABEC 3 precision ball bearing made of 440C stainless steel, with a 0.2500 inch bore, 0.5000 inch outer diameter, and 0.1094 inch width. It is available with single shielding and lubricated with oil meeting MIL-PRF-6085. The bearing has a dynamic load rating of 35 lbf and a static load rating of 12.2 lbf. The inner and outer land diameters are for reference only and may vary. The part is part of a series offering various bore, diameter, and shield configurations with corresponding load ratings.
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.
