Rolling Bearings, Linear Motion, Recirculating Ball, Sleeve Type - Inch Series
Linear motion bearings provide for rectilinear motion as opposed to rotational motion. The type of bearing described in this standard uses balls which circulate in a number of closed loops in the cylindrical bearing body which surrounds the shaft. See Figure 1. Linear bearings are typically applied to meet one or more of the following criteria: a. Smooth anti-friction motion, free from stick-slip or chatter. b. Low force required to produce relative linear motion between the bearing and shaft. These requirements, as well as others, can be met by appropriate use of the various linear bearing types (closed type, adjustable type, open type). The appropriate selection of bearing type and specification should be established between the manufacturer and the user. This Standard gives the general plan for boundary dimensions, tolerances and terminology for recirculating ball, sleeve type, linear motion bearings. This standard applies only to the size range covered by Table 1, Boundary Dimensions.
