The Bosch Rexroth STD.LINEAR BUSHING KBM-16-D (R060101610) is a robust closed standard linear bushing designed for applications requiring precision linear motion under harsh conditions. This model features a rugged all-metal design with a steel ball retainer, making it suitable for environments with heavy contamination such as woodworking, foundries, and cement plants. Its construction includes many pockets that act as lubricant reservoirs to extend lubrication intervals or even allow for lubrication for life. The KBM-16-D is equipped with one seal and is designed to be used with self-supporting shafts. The balls are made of rolling bearing steel which enhances durability and performance. For shaft diameters 12 and higher, the bushing includes an integrated steel retaining ring that allows operation at higher temperatures without compromising functionality. This linear bushing offers a hardened and ground outer sleeve to ensure smooth motion and has multiple rows of balls to distribute the load evenly. It is engineered to prevent jamming by collecting dirt in the pockets away from the moving parts. The KBM-16-D does not include wiper seals but is engineered to withstand challenging conditions. Performance specifications include a maximum dynamic load capacity (Cmax), minimum dynamic load capacity (Cmin), and static load capacities both minimum (Cmin) and maximum (Cmax). The permissible ambient temperature range for operation extends from -30°C to +80°C, ensuring reliability across various climates. The friction coefficient ranges from 0.01 to 0.02, with a maximum of 0.25 under certain conditions, indicating efficient operation with minimal resistance. Weighing in at 0.08 kg, the STD.LINEAR BUSHING KBM-16-D offers an optimal solution for linear guidance where high load capacity and resistance to contaminants are required without sacrificing precision or efficiency.
