Guide bearings are precision components that constrain and guide linear or oscillatory motion in machinery, ensuring alignment and reducing friction.
| Parameter | Typical range | Notes & selection driver |
|---|---|---|
| Clearance | C3 to CN normal clearance | |
| Lubrication | Grease or oil bath | |
| Speed Rating | Up to 3000 rpm | |
| Load Capacity | Dynamic: 5-50 kN, Static: 8-80 kN | |
| Precision Grade | ABEC 3-7 or ISO P0-P6 | |
| Operating Temperature | -30°C to +120°C |
Ranges are indicative industry figures for RFQ preparation, not a supplier commitment. Confirm every value and standard with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
This component is used in the following industrial products
A mechanical component that generates controlled periodic back-and-forth motion within an industrial system.
A mechanical system that applies and maintains controlled tension on wire or filament during feeding operations.
A practical evidence checklist for RFQ preparation and supplier evaluation.
CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
Manufacturer profiles associated with Guide Bearings.
Manufacturer listings support early research and capability understanding. They are not certification, ranking, or transaction guarantees.
Guide bearings primarily ensure precise linear or oscillatory motion by constraining movement to a defined path, reducing friction, and maintaining alignment between moving parts.
Guide bearings are specifically designed to handle combined radial and axial loads while guiding motion along a linear path, whereas radial bearings primarily support rotating shafts with radial loads.
Regular lubrication, contamination prevention, periodic inspection for wear, and alignment checks to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
