It has a light weight outer ring and retainer for low noise operation. TW-OP: Clearance Adjustable Open One ball circuit is removed from the outer cylinder enabling it to be used with bottom supported shaft to eliminate shaft deflection. Ground surface raceway Anti-Corrosive Type A special TOPBALL is also available for corrosive applications. Contact your nearest distributor for application...
Open the catalog to page 5The life of a slide bush can be easily calculated with the load rating of the bush, shaft hardness and applicable load. However, in many cases, slide bushing failure may be caused by improper design of bush peripherals, including the shaft and housing, inappropriate mounting or improper operation. Serious consideration of these peripheral factors, in addition to load rating, are highly recommended when designing a slide bush application. Basic Dynamic Load Rating and Life Expectancy L The basic dynamic load rating is Lh = 2 which· allows a rating life · Ls N1· 60 the load of 2-million...
Open the catalog to page 6Produc t s Load Coefficient (fw) When calculating the bush load, it is necessary to accurately obtain weight, inertial force based on speed, moment load and each transition as time passes. However, it is difficult to calculate those values accurately because reciprocating motion involves the repetition of starts and stops as well as vibration and impact. A more practical approach is to obtain the load coefficient by taking the actual operating conditions into account. Operation at low speed (600 in./min. or less) without impulsive shock from outside Operation at intermediate speed (2400...
Open the catalog to page 7Basic Static Load Rating If a slide bush is loaded when it is in a stationary condition or working at low speed, a permanent elastic deformation is formed on the rolling element. The deformation prevents smooth movement of the bushing. To eliminate this possibility, the basic static load rating must not be exceeded. Relation Between Ball Circuits and Load Rating The load rating of a slide bush varies according to the loaded position on the circumference. The value in the dimensional table indicates the lowest load rating with the load placed on top of one ball circuit. If the slide bush is...
Open the catalog to page 8Produc t s Shaft and Housing To optimize NB TOPBALL performance, high precision shafts and housings are required. 1. Shaft: Dimensional tolerance, surface finish and hardness greatly affect the traveling performance of the TOPBALL. The shaft must be manufactured to the following tolerances. A. A surface finish of 16 micro-inch rms or less. B. Hardness of HRC 60 to 64. Hardness less than HRC 60 decreases the life considerably and reduces the permissible load. Hardness over HRC 64 accelerates steel ball wear. C. Case-hardened depth should be a minimum of .04 inches. D. The correct tolerance...
