Separator Types
In thin section and slewing ring bearings, separators play a vital role in ensuring optimal performance, reduced friction, and increased bearing lifespan. At Silverthin we provide a diverse range of separator types, each tailored for specific bearing configurations and operational demands.
Thin Section Bearing Type C (Radial) & Type X (Four Point) Separator Types Include:
- Nylon, segmented “Snapover” (N)
- Brass, “Snapover” (P)
- Nylon, one piece, “Snapover” (L)
- Phenolic, one piece “Snapover” (D)
- Stainless steel, one piece “Snapover” (T)
- Special/Custom: Crafted to meet specific operational needs. (Z)
Thin Section Bearings Type A (Angular) Separator Types Include:
- Brass, one-piece, circular pocket (R)
- Nylon, circular pocket (G)
- Phenolic, one-piece, circular pocket (H)
- Stainless steel, one-piece, circular pocket (U)
- Full complement, no retainer, filling slot required: For applications that require maximum ball complement. (F)
- Special/Custom: Crafted to meet specific operational needs. (Z)
Slewing Ring Bearing Spacers, Spacer Balls & Separator Types Include:
- Spacers: Typically crafted from durable plastic material, spacers are integral in preventing direct rubbing between balls, ensuring smoother operations.
- Spacer Balls: An alternative to spacers, these are slightly smaller balls positioned between each load-carrying ball, offering an efficient separation solution.
- Separator: In certain applications, the parameters may necessitate the use of a specific separator. Contact Silverthin Engineering for the most suitable options based on your application requirements.
