The TSUPER-24 is a closed-type Super Ball Bushing bearing designed for end-supported linear motion applications. It has a bore diameter of 1.5000/1.4994 inches, an outer diameter of 3.0000/2.970 inches, and a length of 2.410/2.390 inches. The bearing supports a dynamic load capacity of 2000 lbf and is specified for use with a housing fit of 2.3760/2.3750 inches. Clearance or preload tolerances are given as 0.0021C/0.0000 for fixed housing and 0.0021C/0.0000 for adjustable housing. The product is part of the TSUPER series of closed-type ball bushings intended for precision linear guidance.
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.
