▊Structure design
CSB-PCB® Plastic clip bearing is designed with double flange to protect the shaft mounted through metal housings. The double flange and slipped gap ensures easy assembly of the bearings. The double flange design can also protect the bearing from moving out of the housing.
▊Material design
CSB-PCB® Plastic Clip Bearing is made from CSB-EPB3M material which is a good wear resistance polymer. The bearing self-lubricating performance is excellent for dry operation conditions. At the same time, continuous lubricating is allowed during the operation because this material is also with good isolation feature against the most common lubricants.
▊Assembly design
During the assembly, the bearing is pressed into the housing from the smaller flange end until the bigger flange end is pressed into the position. The spiral shape slip gap could not only make the bearing easy to be pressed into the metal housing, but also help to compensate any possible material expansion caused by the squeeze derived from the pressing. The recommended housing tolerance is H7 while the bearing could fit with the housing tolerance range up to H13. The bearing is allowed to be rotating in the housing after assembling.
