▊ PV value
The max PV value of the CSB-EPB6 plastic bearings is 0.3N/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 EPB6-1).

▊ Load, speed and temperature
CSB-EPB6 allows the Max static load of 35Mpa, The max compressive deformation rate under the max load is listed in Graph EPB6-2, The actual load capacity of bearing is slightly less than 35Mpa, The bearing load is variable against the speed and temperature, Fast speed (Vmax: 1.0m/s) results into higher temperature (Tmax: 80℃) which decreases the load capacity of the bearing. Please refer to the Graph EPB6-3 for such variation.


▊ Friction factor, wear and shaft material
▊ Friction factor
Graph EPB6-4 shows the CSB-EPB6 friction factor is slightly increased as long as the operation speed increasing when the loading is relatively stable. Graph EPB6-5 shows the friction factor of CSB-EPB6 is continuing decreasing along with the loading increasing when the operation speed is relatively stable. From Graph EPB6-6, it is found that the friction factor is also variable against the shaft surface roughness. The recommended shaft surface roughness is Ra0.3~0.6.

▊ Wearing and shaft material
Graph EPB6-7 and Graph EPB6-8 describes CSB-EPB6 bearing is suitable for hardened steel and hardened chrome steel shaft. CSB-EPB6 is very similar during its rotation operation and oscillation operation so that this material is suitable for most of the applications.


▊ Chemical resistance
CSB-EPB6 is good at chemical resistance against mild base, weak acidic medium and various kinds of lubricants.
▊ Water absorption
The moisture absorption of CSB-EPB6 plastic bearings is 0.3% in standard atmosphere. The max. water absorption is 1.2% in water. These values are so low that design changes due to absorption are only necessary in extreme applications.

▊ UV resistance
CSB-EPB6 can maintain its color unchanged when it is exposed into the UV ray. The hardness, Compressive strength and wear resistance of the material is also stable under such condition.
