 PV value

The max PV value of the CSB-EPB7 plastic bearings is 0.5N/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 EPB7-1).

▊ Load, speed and temperature

CSB-EPB7 allows the Max static load of 60Mpa, The max compressive deformation rate under the max load is listed in Graph EPB7-2, The actual load capacity of bearing is slightly less than 60Mpa, The bearing load is variable against the speed and temperature, Fast speed(Vmax: 1.0m/s) results into higher temperature (Tmax: 90℃) which decreases the load capacity of the bearing. Please refer to the Graph EPB7-3 for such variation.

▊ Friction factor, wear and shaft material

 Friction factor

CSB-EPB7 Bearing Friction factor is not so sensitive to the operation speed (see Graph EPB7-4). The friction factor is considerably decreased along with the loading increasing and it will be turned to be stable when the loading reaches 20Mpa. Graph EPB7-5 shows the friction factor of the bearing is also not sensitive to the shaft roughness but we still recommend that the roughness of the shaft should be neither too smooth nor too rough. It is recommended to keep the roughness of the shaft to be within the range of Ra0.3 to Ra0.6.

 Wearing and shaft material

Graph EPB7-7 shows that the CSB-EPB7 material is not sensitive with different materials under the rotating operation. It is suitable for hard shaft and high speed steel shaft as well as hard chrome steel shaft. Graph EPB7-8 shows that the hard chrome steel shaft is most suitable for using CSB-EPB7 bearing because the wearing speed is not sensitive when the loading is increased. From the Graph EPB7-8, it shows that CSB-EP7 features different performance.

 Chemical resistance

CSB-EPB7 is good at chemical resistance against weak acidic medium and various kinds of lubricants.

 Water absorption

The moisture absorption of CSB-EPB7 plastic plain bearings is 1.3% in standard atmosphere. The max. water absorption is 6.5% in water. The application environment has to be considered due to the high water absorbtion properties.

 UV resistance

The color of CSB-EPB7 could be dimmed when it is exposed into the UV ray. The material performance stays stable.

CSB® Bearing Material Chemical Resistance
Please select bearing material and medium...
R - Resistant
CR - Conditionally resistant
NR - Not resistant
ND - No test data
RD - Resistant,but the dimension changed due to moisture absorption
NO - No data
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.
