The combined roller bearing, consisting of a RADIAL ROLLER and an AXIAL ROLLER sit on a mild steel hub.
The hub material is ST52/3. Click here for more information on the steel used.
The unit does NOT have to be disassembled for welding but if preferred it can be click here for disassembly instructions.
The bearing requires a clearance hole 50 to 100 microns bigger than dimension "d" on our drawings.
The material or plate to which the bearing hub is to be welded should be the same thickness as H minus h on our drawings.
That is the hub should be inserted up to the flange.
MAKE SURE THAT THE AXIAL ROLLER IS ALIGNED FOR THE CORRECT DIRECTON OF TRAVEL.
If we are supplying an already welded unit click here to see the drawing we want you to inform us on.
Normal mild steel welding techniques can be used, filling the 45 degree weld fillet on the back of the hub.
Tack welding should not be used, A continuous bead is required. Click here to see drawing
Care should be taken that the structure or material to which these bearings are welded is in itself intrinsically
capable of supporting the loads that the bearing is capable of.
