Original Press Release:
Stainless Steel and Self Aligning Linear Ball Bearings are Easily Lubricated Right Inside of LM76's
E. Longmeadow, MA – Lubricating Stainless Steel and Self-Aligning Linear Ball Bearings has never been easier! "New Design" pillow blocks and flange blocks from LM76, features a lubrication fitting, and an alignment set screw in the pillow blocks and flange blocks, and the Stainless Steel and self aligning linear bearings are modified by having an alignment flat ground on the bearings' outer shell and drilling a hole through the outer shell. Lubricants can then be pumped directly inside of linear ball bearing races without having to remove the bearing from the shaft. The Pillow and Flange Blocks also have been designed to accommodate an encapsulated ETX Scraper Seals that prevents contaminants from getting inside the bearing and retains the lubricant in the bearing.
