BLACK RACER Ceramic Coated Linear Bearings require constant lubrication. High system speeds or rapid oscillation applications may perform better with SAE 30 weight oil. Moderate to slow speeds typically use light greases such as lithium stearates. The only lubricants not compatible with Ceramic Coated Bearings are those that are silicon based. Silicon based lubricants become gummy and can lead to bearing seizure.
Black Racer Ceramic Coated Linear Bearings Excel in applications that present:
High acceleration and blazing system speeds - Over 120 g's successful operation
Simultaneous linear, oscillating and rotary motion in 1 bearing
Contamination - glass, metal shavings, abrasive dust
High Loads are Present - 10x's more than linear ball bearings
Water, Chemical Washdown/Submersion
Shock & Vibration - Dampens Vibration to Shaft & System
Smooth, Quiet Linear Motion is Required - Medical/Office
Linear & Rotary Motion Together are Required
Shaft Friendly Linear Motion is Required - will not groove shafting
FDA Compliant when used with a FDA Compliant Grease
