Plain Linear Bearing - Square Flange SFP08C 1/2" Compensated

  • Compensated Plain Linear Bearing with a square flange 1/2" ID (inner diameter). The compensated running clearance provides more clearance between the inner diameter and shaft allowing the flange mounted bearing to perform like a linear ball bearing.

    • Housing With Bearing Included
    • Precision running clearance on the inner diameter, 0.0005” per side
    • Spherical 'Self-aligning' I.D. in the housing. Self-aligning housing
    • Compensated running clearance on the ID
    • Standard Width
    • Square Flange End Mount 
    • Inch Series
    • Closed
    • Self-Lubricating Bearing Liner: FrelonGOLD® is standard
    • Optional liners include Frelon® J & Frelon® W 
    • Temperature Rating: -400°F/+400°F or -240°C/204°C
    • Inch, metric and JIS sizing options 
    • Designed for use with linear rail supported shafting 
    • Can operate in any orientation 
    • Static Load Capacities up to 166,000 lb (740 kN) 
    • ID sizes: 4.76 mm (0.19 in) to 101.6 mm (4 in) 
    • Specific sizes are 3/16” to 4” Inch Series, 5mm to 80mm Metric Series
    • Choose between standard ID running clearance (0.0005" per side) and compensated ID running clearance (0.0015" per side) 
    • Options for standard/straight OD or self-aligning/spherical OD to prevent binding.
    • Maximum Speed: Up to 8 m/s (315 in/s) 
    • Shaft Lengths: Up to 12 feet 
    • Shell Material: Standard is aluminum; stainless steel shells are available
    • Self-Lubricating: Provides oil-free operation
    • Seal Options: Nitrile rubber, urethane, and viton seals available from ½” ID and up or 20mm and up
    • Mounting Options: O-ring and retaining ring grooves for multiple mounting options
    • External Lubrication: Optional feature for added lubrication
    • Vibration Damping: Ensures smooth and quiet operation
    • Designed for use with end-supported shafting 
    • Interchangeable with linear ball bearings and some bronze bushings  
    • Choose between standard ID running clearance (0.0005" per side) and compensated ID running clearance (0.0015" per side) 
    • Options for standard/straight OD or self-aligning/spherical OD to prevent binding
