The Bosch Rexroth STD.LINEAR BUSHING KBM-25 (R060002500) is a high-quality linear bushing designed for precision linear motion applications. This standard metal linear bushing features a rugged all-metal design with a steel ball retainer, tailored for harsh environments and heavy contamination. It is specifically built to withstand use in demanding conditions such as woodworking, foundries, and cement plants. The KBM-25 model is closed, making it suitable for self-supporting shafts and comes without seals, which allows for higher permissible temperatures when used with shaft diameters 30 mm and higher. The outer sleeve of the KBM-25 is hardened and ground to ensure durability and performance. It has multiple pockets that act as lubricant reservoirs to extend lubrication intervals or even allow for lubrication for life. These pockets also serve the important function of collecting dirt to prevent jamming of the bushing. The product features a steel ball retainer that can accommodate shaft diameters of 12 mm and above with plastic strips made from POM or PA materials. The KBM-25 offers impressive load capacities, with a maximum dynamic load capacity (Cmax) based on a total travel distance of 100 km; this capacity can be adjusted based on different travel distances as specified in the detailed footnotes provided by the manufacturer. The permissible ambient temperature range for this model is from -20°C to +80°C, which can be especially beneficial in various industrial settings. With its low friction coefficient ranging from 0.01 to 0.02 under lubricated conditions, this linear bushing ensures smooth motion with minimal resistance. The breakaway force required is also specified by Bosch Rexroth to help users understand the initial force needed to start linear movement. Weighing in at just 0.4 kg, the STD.LINEAR BUSHING KBM-25 combines lightweight design with robust capabilities, making it an essential component for linear motion systems where precision and reliability are paramount.
