Dimensions

▊ PV value

The max PV value of the CSB-EPB18 plastic bearings is 0.4N/mm²×m/s which determines the load capacity of bearing is inversely proportional to the speed. Please refer to the chart for more detailed information (Graph EPB18-1).

▊ Load, speed and temperature

CSB-EPB18 allows the Max static load of 50Mpa, The max compressive deformation rate under the max load is listed in Graph EPB18-2, The actual load capacity of bearing is slightly less than 50Mpa, The bearing load is variable against the speed and temperature, Fast speed (Vmax: 1.0m/s) results into higher temperature (Tmax: 100℃) which decreases the load capacity of the bearing. Please refer to the Graph EPB18-3 for such variation.

▊ Friction factor, wear and shaft material

▊ Friction factor

Graph EPB18-4 shows that as the same as most of the slide bearing materials, the friction factor of CSB-EPB18 is increasing along with the rotation speed under a certain loading while as shown in figure EPB18-5, it is decreased along with the increasing of loading when the operation speed is stable. From figure EPB18-6, it is found that the most suitable shaft roughness is Ra0.2 to Ra0.6. Smoother shaft or rougher shaft may result into friction factor increasing.

▊ Wearing and shaft material

Graph EPB18-7 and EPB18-8 shows the wearing is considerably affected by the shaft materials. Heat-treated steel shaft and carbon steel shaft is good for this bearing material. Graph EPB18-7 tells that CSB-EPB18 is suitable for hardened chrome steel and hardened steel shaft in rotation operation or oscillation operation.

▊ Chemical resistance

CSB-EPB18 is good at chemical resistance against weak acidic medium and various kinds of lubricants.

▊ Water absorption

The moisture absorption of CSB-EPB18 plastic plain bearings is 0.3% in standard atmosphere. The max. water absorption is 0.5% in water . These values are very low, CSB-EPB18 plastic palin bearings is very well suited for used in wet applications.

▊ UV resistance

Disintegration could be possible for the material CSB-EPB18 after long period of exposing under the UV ray and therefore the performance of the material will be reduced.

CSB® Bearing Material Chemical Resistance

Please select bearing material and medium...

CSB® bearing material chemical resistance data is a comparison test result of the CSB chemistry laboratory using laboratory specimens or similar chemicals at room temperature 23 ℃, without considering the impact of other temperatures and chemical medium mixtures on the chemical resistance of CSB® bearing materials ; Therefore, this data can only act as a reference. CSB® recommends that the chemical resistance of actual parts should be tested under application conditions and verify the suitability of the bearings.

CSB-EPB® Plain bearings finder V2.1

▊CSB-EPB® Plastic Bearings Finder[V2.1] is based on the analysis and calculation of a large number of test data in CSB® laboratory. You can calculations material data by entering parameters such as bearing load, speed, and temperature, and finally output material adaptation data.
▊Because the system calculate and analyze based on lab data, it can't exactly meet the ractual use requirements absolutly. The system data verification has certain limitations; CSB® recommends that the bearing must be tested again to verify whether it meets the actual use requirements.
▊CSB-EPB® Plastic Bearings Finder output data information is only for design reference, and can not be used as the final standard for determining the bearing material conformity, If you have any questions, please contact CSB® sales engineers.
