Ball Bearings

Open bearings dissipate heat more efficiently than shielded and sealed bearings.

Permanently Lubricated Ball Bearings

A solid polymer lubricant surrounds the balls, eliminating the need for additional lubrication. Because it's solid, the lubricant blocks out water and dust, extending the life of the bearing.

Stainless Steel Ball Bearings

Bearings are 440C stainless steel for good corrosion resistance.

Open bearings dissipate heat more efficiently than shielded and sealed bearings.

Shims for Ball Bearing Housings

Also called tolerance rings, these rings are for use in stamped, molded, or worn housings to form a tight hold on the bearings. They work like a spring, creating tension between the bearing and the housing to hold the bearing in place. They also reduce vibration and compensate for some thermal expansion between the housing and the bearing and eliminate the need for keys, pins, and adhesives. They're made of stainless steel for corrosion resistance.

End Supports for Lead Screws and Ball Screws

A set of ball bearings reduces friction and secures the end of a ball or lead screw. Note: The end of your ball or lead screw must be machined before installing it into an end support.

For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.

For Radial Loads

End supports for radial loads handle loads perpendicular to the lead screw.
