Product catalog summary
Overview: Polymer bushing bearings are presented as a reliable and versatile solution for low-load, low-speed applications, offering corrosion resistance and cost-effectiveness. They are suitable for various industries including factory automation, robotics, and medical automation.
Specifications: These bearings can handle loads up to 9000 N (2023 lbf) and speeds up to 8 m/s (315 in/sec). They are available in closed and open types, with sizes ranging from 6 to 50 mm for closed and 10 to 50 mm for open types. The operating temperature range is -50°C to 90°C (-58°F to 194°F).
Material and Design: The bearings feature polymer liners that reduce noise and are resistant to dirt and dust. They come with anodized aluminum adapters and are available with aluminum pillow blocks.
Applications: These bearings are ideal for applications where moment load is non-critical or where contamination and temperature are concerns. They are compatible with shafting materials like aluminum or 316 stainless steel, which are not suitable for Thomson Ball Bushing® Bearings.
Technical Details: The document provides detailed dimensions and load capacities for both closed and open types of polymer bushings and pillow blocks. It includes specific part numbers, inside and outside diameters, lengths, and load capacities for dynamic and static conditions.
Ordering Information: An ordering key is provided to specify the type, size, and configuration of the bearings, ensuring precise selection for specific applications.
Conclusion: Thomson polymer bushing bearings offer a maintenance-free, noise-reducing, and adaptable solution for various linear motion applications, with a focus on flexibility and reliability.
