▊ PV value
The max PV value of the CSB-EPB19 plastic bearings is 0.6N/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 EPB19-1).

▊ Load, speed and temperature
CSB-EPB19 allows the Max static load of 60Mpa, The max compressive deformation rate under the max load is listed in Graph EPB19-2, The actual load capacity of bearing is slightly less than 60Mpa, The bearing load is variable against the speed and temperature, Fast speed (Vmax: 1.5m/s) results into higher temperature (Tmax: 150℃) which decreases the load capacity of the bearing. Please refer to the Graph EPB19-3 for such variation.


▊ Friction factor, wear and shaft material
▊ Friction factor
Graph EPB19-4 shows that the friction factor of CSB-EPB19 is not sensitive to the operation speed. Graph EPB19-5 tells that the friction factor of CSB-EPB19 is decreased along with the loading increasing and will be relatively stable when the loading reaches 20 Mpa upwards. Graph EPB19-6 shows that the friction factor of CSB-EPB19 is not sensitive to the shaft surface roughness. Therefore, it is recommended a proper shaft surface roughness in the range of Ra0.3~0.6.

▊ Wearing and shaft material
Graph EPB19-7 shows CSB-EPB19 friction factor is variable against different shaft materials in rotation operation under loading of 2Mpa. Testing indicates that hardened shaft is best for rotation operation of CSB-EPB19. The operation condition is better when CSB-EPB19 is used against hardened steel shafts, high speed steel shaft and hardened chrome steel shaft under rotation operation. Graph EPB19-8x describes that hardened chrome steel is better for this material under high loading operation where as long as the increasing of the loading, the wearing of the bearing is relatively stable.


▊ Chemical resistance
CSB-EPB19 is good at chemical resistance against mild base, weak acidic medium and various kinds of lubricants.
▊ Water absorption
The moisture absorption of CSB-EPB19 plastic plain bearings is 1.3% in standard atmosphere. The max. water absorption is 4.5% in water. The application environment has to be considered due to the high water absorbtion properties.

▊ UV resistance
The color of CSB-EPB19 could be dimmed when it is exposed into the UV ray. The material performance stays stable.
