The BRRCOM-SCM3T is a right-hand threaded, two-piece commercial stainless steel rod end with a 0.1900-inch ball bore, designed for low-friction articulating applications. It features a self-lubricating PTFE liner bonded to a 440C stainless steel ball body and a 303 stainless steel race, with a maximum angular misalignment of 20 degrees and a static radial load capacity of 912 pounds. The part measures 0.625 inches in width, 0.312 inches in corresponding width, 0.234 inches in length, and has a threaded shank of 1.250 inches with a #10-32 UNF-3A thread. It weighs 0.03 pounds.
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.
