How to Choose Thin Wall Bearings
 

Basic selection

Select the basic type, tolerance level, and clearance of thin-walled bearings based on the working conditions of the bearings, including load direction and load type, speed, lubrication method, coaxiality requirements, positioning or non positioning, installation and maintenance environment, environmental temperature, etc.

Calculation

Based on the working conditions, stress conditions, and service life requirements of thin-walled bearings, determine the bearing model through calculation, or select the bearing model according to usage requirements, and then verify the service life.

Verification

Verify the rated load and ultimate speed of the selected bearing.The main considerations for selecting thin-walled bearings are the maximum speed, required accurate lifespan, and load capacity, while other factors help determine the final solution for thin-walled bearing type, structure, size, tolerance level, and clearance requirements.

Radial Direction

When the load is mainly in the radial direction, radial bearings can also support limited axial and reverse loads. For this type, standard series bearings are usually the best choice.
When the thrust and axial load are large, angular contact bearings can be used. These bearings, when used as twin bearings (matching sets), can improve load capacity and stiffness, and enhance rotational accuracy.
When it comes to 4-point contact bearings, they have a unique raceway design that allows one bearing to withstand radial, thrust, and overturning torque loads. From a cross-sectional perspective, the raceway appears as a Gothic arch rather than a true radius, forming four contact points with the ball and raceway. Designers can choose a 4-point contact bearing arrangement instead of two angular contact bearings. This can save space and weight.

 

Advantage of Thin Wall Bearings

To Save Space
The thin section bearings have a smaller width, making them suitable for applications where space is at a premium. Compared to traditional bearings, thin section bearings take up less space, helping to reduce the overall size and weight of the equipment.The thin section bearings' most celebrated feature is their capacity to save space without compromising performance. This attribute is particularly valuable in applications with confined spatial constraints, where every millimeter matters.

Place Steel Balls
After placing the inner ring and cage on the tray, slowly insert the steel balls into the pockets of the cage, taking care not to be impatient. Place them one by one, and then support them with the tray to ensure that the steel balls do not fall out of the pockets.

 

Insert the Taper Guide Block
Slowly press the taper guide block into the outer ring hole, gradually expanding the outer ring, and gradually aligning the cylindrical part of the taper guide block with the upper end face of the outer ring. The purpose of doing this is to ensure that subsequent operations can proceed normally, because the installation of thin-walled bearings is a step-by-step process of interlocking each other.

 

Adjust Position
Adjust the taper guide block and outer ring position according to the required medication requirements to ensure good contact between the outer ring and the upper section of the support ring. Only by treating the contact surfaces at both ends well can the thin-walled bearing operate smoothly in the later stage and reduce the occurrence of bearing failures and other problems.

 

Install the Bearing Component into the Taper Guide Block
Slowly place the small cylindrical part under the installed bearing assembly tray into the groove above the tapered guide block to ensure good contact between the two. Then insert the small cylindrical part of the press fit block into the inner bore of the inner ring.

 

Apply Pressure to Complete Installation
Apply axial force to the press fit block, and press the inner ring, cage, and steel ball into the outer ring to complete the installation of the thin-walled bearing. This step is also an important step in the installation of thin-walled bearings. When applying pressure, it is important to apply even force to protect the bearings and avoid wasting resources.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q: What are thin section bearings?

A: Thin-section bearings are high-precision products with very little running noise and a high load-carrying capacity. These bearings are available in three different designs with extremely small, predominantly square cross-sections.

Q: What is the difference between thick shell bearings and thin shell bearings?

A: Thick shell bearings have a steel back with the required stiffness. Thin shell bearings have a wall thickness between 2% and 2.5% of the journal diameter. The steel back does not have the sufficient stiffness to support the cast white metal alone. The bearing must therefore be supported rigidly over its full length.

Q: How do I know what size bearings I need?

A: Determining the size of a ball bearing can be done by measuring its outer diameter (OD), bore size (ID), and width. These measurements are usually expressed in millimetres (mm). Using a calliper or a micrometer, you can accurately measure these dimensions.

Q: How do you choose a bearing fit?

A: Selection of a proper fit is dependent upon thorough analysis of bearing operating conditions, including consideration of: ● Shaft and housing material, wall thickness, surface finish accuracy, etc. Machinery operating conditions (nature and magnitude of load, rotational speed, temperature, etc.

Q: How do I calculate bearing size?

A: Measuring your bearing: Most bearings are measured in three ways, the inside diameter or (ID), the outside diameter or (OD) and the width or (W). It is important to note that our bearing measurements are all done in the following order: Inside diameter (ID) x Outside diameter (OD) x Width (W).

Q: Are bigger bearings better?

A: Smaller ball bearings have more limited load capacities and are used in applications where space efficiency is more important than load capacity. Larger bearings have greater load capacities and are used for heavy-duty industries such as agriculture machinery, mining and drilling equipment, or heavy power tools.

Q: Which bearing is most suitable?

A: If you need a bearing capable of withstanding a high radial load, then we recommend a cylindrical roller bearing. On the other hand, if your bearing needs to support lighter loads a ball bearing might be sufficient as they are often less expensive. Rotation speed is another element that should be considered.

Q: Do I need oversized or undersized bearings?

A: Undersized bearings are used when a crankshaft has been machined or ground undersize. Oversize bearings have more material on the outside facing the bearing housing bore. Oversized bearings are used when the block has been machined or line bored oversized.

Q: What is average life of bearing?

A: Average life –median lives of groups of bearings are averaged--somewhere between 4 and 5 times the L10 life. The constant radial load which a group of bearings can endure for a rating life of 1 million revolutions of the inner ring (stationary load and stationary outer ring).

Q: Which bearing type is best?

A: Angular contact bearings are the best bearing choice for high-speed applications. One reason is that the balls are smaller and smaller balls weigh less and produce less centrifugal force when rotating.

Q: Which bearing is most efficient?

A: The most efficient bearing would be a magnetic bearing. If you run a flywheel in a vacuum with a magnetic bearing, the friction will be as close to zero as it gets. If you are worried about the power to run the bearing you can use superconducting electromagnets.

Q: Which bearings last longer?

A: Based on longevity, ceramic ball bearings may last up to ten times as much as steel bearings would in the same motor. Compared to steel bearings, ceramic balls are less prone to expansions and vibrations.

Q: Are all bearings the same quality?

A: Quality Bearing Companies use the same standards for manufacturing however they may use different designs and incorporate different features so while they are interchangeable for form and fit sometimes the function can behave differently due to internal design differences.

Q: What are the grades of bearings?

A: Bearing balls are manufactured to a specific grade, which defines its geometric tolerances. The grades range from 2000 to 3, where the smaller the number the higher the precision. Grades are written "GXXXX", i.e. grade 100 would be "G100". Lower grades also have fewer defects, such as flats, pits, soft spots, and cuts.

Q: What is the difference between undersize and oversized bearings?

A: An undersized bearing has extra material thickness on the inside of the bearing facing the crankshaft journal. Undersized bearings are used when a crankshaft has been machined or ground undersize. Oversize bearings have more material on the outside facing the bearing housing bore.

Q: What is the strongest type of bearing?

A: Unlike ball bearings, roller bearings use cylindrical, spherical, or tapered rolling elements instead of balls to provide smooth, low-friction motion. They typically have greater load capacity and rigidity than ball bearings. The spherical roller style can handle axial loads as well as high radial loads.

Q: Do bearings have standard sizes?

A: The standard ball bearing sizes vary widely based on the type and application of the bearing. Ball bearings are available in both metric and imperial sizes.
