▊ PV value
The max PV value of the CSB-EPB25 plastic bearings is 0.45N/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 EPB25-1).

▊ Load, speed and temperature
CSB-EPB25 allows the Max static load of 60Mpa, The max compressive deformation rate under the max load is listed in Graph EPB25-2, The actual load capacity of bearing is slightly less than 60Mpa, The bearing load is variable against the speed and temperature, Fast speed (Vmax: 1.3m/s) results into higher temperature (Tmax: 180℃) which decreases the load capacity of the bearing. Please refer to the Graph EPB25-3 for such variation.


▊ Friction factor, wear and shaft material
▊ Friction factor
Graph EPB25-4 shows that the friction factor of CSB-EPB25 is not sensitive to the operation speed and Graph EPB25-5 shows that the friction factor is CSB-EPB25 is decreased along with the loading increasing and become stable when the loading is over 20Mpa. Graph EPB25-6 tells that the friction factor of CSB-EPB25 is also not sensitive to the shaft roughness but we still recommend the shaft roughness to be Ra0.7~0.9.

▊ Wearing and shaft material
Graph EPB25-7 and EPB25-8 shows that the wearing of CSB-EPB25 is sensitive to different materials under rotation operation with the loading of 2Mpa. It is suitable for hardened shaft, hardened steel shaft and stainless steel shaft in the rotation operation. Hardened chrome steel shaft is the best choice for CSB-EPB25. The wearing will be decreased as long as the loading increasing.


▊ Chemical resistance
CSB-EPB25 is good at chemical resistance against weak acidic medium and various kinds of lubricants.
▊ Water absorption
The moisture absorption of CSB-EPB25 plastic bearings is 0.3% in standard atmosphere. The max. water absorption is 1.6% in water. These values are so low that design changes due to absorption are only necessary in extreme applications.

▊ UV resistance
CSB-EPB25 can maintain its color unchanged when it is exposed into the UV ray. The material performance stays stable.
