Editor Motion Control – High Speed Linear Bearings
E. Longmeadow, MA – Motion Control – LM76’s high speed, “Black Racer,” ceramic coated linear bearings out perform linear ball bushing and linear polymer bearings in high speed and high acceleration/deceleration applications. These drop in replacement linear bearings are designed to be used in standard open and closed pillow blocks. “Black Racer” linear bearings are ideal for: Rocket sleds, crash test systems, and other high speed, high acceleration application.
Open and closed ceramic bearings are available in 12 inch sizes (0.250 in. to 4.000 in.) and 11 metric sizes (5 mm to 80 mm), and in LM76’s self aligning configuration, as well as their Lube/Plus Design which incorporates an internal felt wiper to extend lubrication capabilities. A file hard RC 89 ceramic shell over an aluminum substrate has a coefficient of friction of .04 to .08 (1/3 the coefficient of friction polymer bearings), withstands up to 5000 PSI, 40,000 PV and unlimited SFM! Additionally, these bearings have a typical life expectancy of 100 million linear feet. Shafting options include RC60 steel shafting and other shafting options available from LM76.
