Compared to conventional metal bearing units, it is possible to achieve a weight reduction of about 20-50% and reduce the rotational torque to about one-third!
We handle lower bearings for steering columns. The integrated design features clips and bolt holes on the outer diameter and special ribs on the inner diameter, which reduce the processing time for the counterpart components such as jackets and shafts, enabling cost reduction. The rigidity achieved is equal to or greater than that of conventional metal bearings. The metal bearing unit deforms under a load of 8,000N and disassembles at 8,500N. The BNL bearing unit shows no plastic deformation under a load of 8,000N and fails to function at 11,000N. *Please check the photos before and after the thrust load test in the PDF download below. 【Features】 ■ Lightweight ■ Flexible design ■ No grease required ■ Low rotational torque ■ Easy assembly ■ Cost reduction *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
