LMHP Linear Bearing LUU Series — Square Flanged Extended Length Ball Bushing
9 bore sizes • Dynamic load 323–2490 N • ISO Square Flange Extended
GCr15 HRC 58–64
Flanged Mount
Dual Lip Seal
🆕 Series Overview
The LMHP...LUU series extends the square-flange LMHP...UU bearing with a longer body to increase dynamic and static load ratings. Square flange dimensions — face width W, bolt-hole positions, flange thickness H — are identical to the UU counterpart. This series combines torsional resistance of the square flange with the enhanced load capacity of the extended ball circuit.
LMHP...LUU is specified when moment loads or long stroke lengths push the standard UU rating toward its limit, and where torsional resistance of the square flange is also required. The extended body provides a longer shaft contact length, improving guidance stiffness against pitching and yawing moments.

⚙ Key Design Features
Flanged Axial Location
The precision-ground flange face registers directly against the housing shoulder, providing positive axial location without snap rings or adhesive retention.
GCr15 Chrome Steel
Through-hardened to HRC 58–64. Ball tracks ground to Ra 0.2 µm for full-film lubrication at the ball-race contact under rated load conditions.
Dynamic Load 323–2490 N
Covering 9 bore sizes for applications from lightweight instrument stages to heavy industrial press guides.
NBR Dual Lip Seals
Retain factory-applied NLGI-2 grease while excluding dust and contamination. Rated −20°C to +80°C continuous service.
PA66-GF30 Retainer
Glass-filled nylon cage maintains precise ball spacing across the full 360° circuit, preventing ball-to-ball contact and associated noise.
ISO/DIN Interchangeable
All dimensions conform to ISO Square Flange Extended standards for direct replacement compatibility with equivalent housings.

🔭 Materials & Construction
GCr15 chrome steel (AISI 52100), HRC 58–64. All flange faces ground flat and square to bore axis within 0.02 mm. PA66-GF30 retainer. NBR dual lip seals. NLGI-2 grease. The longer body holds a greater grease charge than UU, marginally extending re-lubrication intervals.
The ball retainer is injection-moulded from glass-fibre-reinforced nylon (PA66-GF30), maintaining precise ball spacing around the full 360° circuit to prevent ball-to-ball contact noise at higher traverse speeds. Dual NBR lip seals on both end faces retain factory-applied NLGI-2 lithium-complex grease while excluding dust, swarf, and splash contamination. Operating temperature range is −20°C to +80°C with standard seals and grease.
🏭 Typical Applications
Semiconductor & Electronics Assembly
Diamond-flange (LMK) variants are specified in SMT pick-and-place machines and PCB drilling heads where the bolt pattern must clear adjacent PCB components; the asymmetric mounting points reduce the flange envelope versus round-flange designs.
Automotive Body Assembly
Square-flange variants resist the torque loads generated by hemming press guide pillars without rotating in the housing, maintaining panel datum accuracy across millions of press cycles.

🔧 Installation & Maintenance
🔎 Flange Face Seating
Ensure the housing counterbore depth matches the bearing flange thickness. An under-depth counterbore leaves the flange proud of the housing face, creating a gap at the bolt interface that allows the bearing to rock under load and introduces harmonic error motion.
🔧 Bolt Torque Sequence
Tighten flange mounting bolts in a cross pattern to 30–50% of final torque, then complete to specification. Sequential tightening distorts the flange and shifts the bore axis by up to 0.05 mm, degrading shaft alignment.
📈 Housing Bore Tolerance
Machine the housing bore to H7 tolerance. For square-flange (LMH/LMHP) variants, also verify the flange seating face is square to the bore within 0.02 mm to prevent cocking the bearing on assembly.
⚙ Lubrication
Apply NLGI-2 lithium-complex grease to the shaft before insertion. Re-lubricate every 500 km of travel or 6 months under normal duty. In washdown environments, shorten the re-lubrication interval and use a water-resistant grease formulation.
🔎 Selection Guide
Verify housing counterbore accommodates the extended LUU body before machining. Square flange dimension W is unchanged from UU — only body length L increases. Confirm torsional load magnitude against bolt preload capacity; if loads are very high, consider a keyed or dowel-pinned housing.
①
Confirm Bore & Standard
Match bore diameter to shaft. Confirm ISO Square Flange Extended housing dimensions — mixing ISO and DIN outer diameters requires housing re-machining.
②
Select Flange Style
Round flange for maximum moment resistance; diamond flange for compact bolt clearance; square flange for torsional resistance.
③
Calculate Load & Life
Compute radial load P. Target L10 = (C/P)³ × 50 km. If life is marginal, specify the LUU extended variant to raise C without changing bore.
