The Bosch Rexroth TOLERANCE RING AN160X26 (R081016004) is a precision-engineered machine element designed to provide a fixed and secure connection between components. This particular model of tolerance ring is characterized by its circumferential flat edges on the outer diameter, making it suitable for use with a standard nominal shaft. Crafted from carbon steel, the AN160X26 tolerance ring offers high temperature stability, capable of continuous operation up to certain degrees Celsius and brief peaks at even higher temperatures. The product's design compensates for differences in thermal expansion between connected machine elements made from varying materials, eliminating the need for keyways or other positive-locking connections. This results in simpler part designs and contributes to quicker and more economical installation processes. The large tolerance zone of the AN160X26 ensures compatibility with connecting parts, even when there are considerable manufacturing variances. Additionally, this tolerance ring model boasts resistance to various types of chemical stress and is an extremely low-cost solution for creating machine element connections. It also allows for substantial transferable torque and can handle permissible radial loads while maintaining stability; however, lower values are recommended for pulsating and alternating loads. Special sizes of the TOLERANCE RING AN160X26 can be requested to suit specific application needs. The product's simple yet effective design makes it an invaluable component in numerous mechanical assemblies where cost-efficiency and reliability are paramount.
