🔭 Materials & Performance Data

The LIN sliding membrane is a proprietary high-performance plastic with density 1.48 g/cm³ and kinetic friction coefficient 0.05–0.15 against steel (dry). Max PV value (dry) 0.4 N/mm²·m/s, continuous temperature −50°C to +90°C, short-term peak +120°C. Tensile strength 75 MPa (ISO 527), compressive strength 60 MPa, elastic modulus 2,400 MPa, Rockwell hardness HRR 107. The spiral groove pattern on the membrane bore expels contaminants axially rather than allowing accumulation — the key advantage over ball linear bearings in dusty environments. The aluminium housing is anodised for corrosion resistance.

📈

Max PV (Dry)

0.4 N/mm²·m/s. Kinetic friction 0.05–0.15 against steel without lubrication. Higher PV possible with lubrication.

🌡

Temperature Range

Continuous −50°C to +90°C. Short-term peak +120°C. Cold-start capable at −50°C without special preparation.

🔧

No Lubrication Required

Dry-running design suitable for food, pharmaceutical, and medical applications where lubricant contamination is prohibited.

🛣

Chemical Resistance

Resistant to alkaline detergents, dilute acids, mineral oils, and common industrial solvents. Washable with food-industry sanitisers.

🏭 Typical Applications

🍽

Food Processing Main Guidance

Pillow block bearings for conveyor guides, filling head carriages, and portioning actuators in food-grade wash-down zones.

💊

Medical Equipment Frames

Complete bearing units for large-format medical device positioning where pillow block mounting simplifies frame design.

⚙

Industrial Linear Axes

Standard pillow block guidance for pick-and-place, conveyor systems, and linear transfer in dusty or wet environments.

📈

Packaging Line Carriages

Primary carriage bearings for form-fill-seal, cartoning, and labelling machines in continuous-duty cycles.

LIN-11G in application environment

🔧 Installation & Maintenance

🔎 Base Mounting

Mount to flat base within 0.05 mm flatness. Tighten mounting bolts in diagonal sequence.

🔧 Shaft Insertion

h6, Ra 0.8 µm shaft. Insert through housing bore. Fasten shaft retaining clips after insertion.

📈 Alignment

On twin-shaft systems, align both pillow blocks parallel within 0.02 mm per 100 mm.

✅ Membrane Replacement

Remove shaft, press out worn LIN-01R bearing, press in new LIN-01R, replace shaft. Housing remains bolted to machine.

🔎 Selection Guide

Select bore to match shaft. Verify housing W and H dimensions fit available mounting space. Check load against dynamic rating.

①

Confirm Environment

Confirm dry-running pillow block is required. For two-bearing long spans, use LIN-11GL.

②

Select Bore & Type

Match bore to shaft. Verify housing W, H fit frame mounting zone. Check bolt hole pattern against frame.

③

Verify Load & PV

Verify F ≤ dynamic rating from table at P = 5 MPa. For moment loads, use two LIN-11G units spaced along shaft.

LIN series plastic linear bearings overview

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

▶ What is the LIN-11G pillow block and what does it include?

The LIN-11G is a complete linear bearing unit: anodised aluminium housing block with one LIN-01R plastic bearing pre-installed. Mounts to machine base via four threaded holes. Shaft, end caps, and mounting fasteners not included.

▶ What is the difference between standard (G) and long (GL) pillow blocks?

LIN-11G contains one LIN-01R bearing. LIN-11GL contains two LIN-01R bearings separated by a spacer in a longer housing. The two-bearing span provides greater moment-load resistance — specified wherever pitching or yawing loads are present from offset payloads or long strokes.

▶ What is the advantage of the open (GK) pillow block?

The LIN-11GK has an open slot running the full length of the housing top, allowing lateral mounting onto the shaft without removing the shaft from its supports. Essential for retrofit applications and field replacement on machines where shaft disassembly is not possible. Load ratings are lower than closed LIN-11G — select next bore size up if load is close to the limit.

▶ Can the LIN-11G housing be used in washdown environments?

Yes. The anodised aluminium housing resists alkaline cleaners, and the LIN membrane needs no lubrication that could contaminate wash water. Seal the housing mounting-face joint with food-grade silicone sealant and orient the housing with any drain hole facing down.

▶ How is the LIN-11G aligned on a twin-shaft system?

Mount both pillow blocks on a common base plate machined flat within 0.05 mm. Align shaft axes parallel within 0.02 mm per 100 mm using a dial indicator on the shaft. The LIN plastic bearing tolerates more misalignment than a ball linear bearing, but excessive misalignment accelerates membrane wear at the loaded edge.
