The TSUPER-20 is a closed-type Super Ball Bushing bearing designed for end-supported linear motion applications. It has a bore diameter of 1.2500/1.2494 inches, an outer diameter of 2.625/2.600 inches, and a total length of 2.004/1.984 inches. The bearing supports a dynamic load capacity of 1500 lbf with a recommended housing fit of 2.0008/2.0000 inches for fixed alignment and 2.0010/2.0000 inches for adjustable alignment. Clearance or preload settings are specified as 0.0018C/0.0001P for fixed and 0.002C/0.0000 for adjustable. The part includes a pressure-sensitive insert designed for concentric alignment. Number of ball circuits is six. Its contacts are made for corrosion-resistant or ceramic ball options when specified as an extension to the catalog number.
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.
