The TTWN-24 is a closed-type Super Ball Bushing twin pillow block bearing for end-supported applications, designed to support shafts with low friction and high load capacity. It has a 1.500 inch bore diameter, measures 4.75 inches in length, 3.50 inches in width, and 9.00 inches in overall length. The block supports a dynamic load capacity of 4000 lbf and features a 1/4-28 lubrication access port. It includes integral seals at both ends and is mounted using a 1/4 inch bolt hole. The unit weighs 7.80 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.
