▊ PV value

The max PV value of the CSB-EPB8 plastic bearings is 0.8N/mm²×m/s which determines the load capacity of bearing is inversely proportional to the speed. Please refer to the chart for more detailed information (Graph EPB8-1).

▊ Load, speed and temperature

CSB-EPB8 allows the Max static load of 85Mpa, The max compressive deformation rate under the max load is listed in Graph EPB8-2, The actual load capacity of bearing is slightly less than 85Mpa, The bearing load is variable against the speed and temperature, Fast speed (Vmax: 1.2m/s) results into higher temperature (Tmax: 200℃) which decreases the load capacity of the bearing. Please refer to the Graph EPB8-3 for such variation.

▊ Friction factor, wear and shaft material

▊ Friction factor

Graph EPB8-4 shows that the friction factor of CSB-EPB8 is not considerably affected by the operation speed when the loading is stable. The special embedded lubricant helps the material to be suitable for the underwater operation. When the operation speed keeps stable and the loading is over 20Mpa, the friction factor of CSB-EPB8 is not variable along with the loading change (See Graph EPB8-5). The shaft roughness highly affects the friction factor but this affecting will be stable when the shaft roughness is better than Ra0.7 (See Graph EPB8-6). The recommended shaft roughness is Ra0.2 to Ra0.3.

▊ Wearing and shaft material

The rotation test against different shaft material showing in Graph EPB8-7 and Graph EPB8-8 induces that the best mating shaft material for the material CSB-EPB8 is hardened chrome steel shaft but not stainless steel shaft. CSB-EPB8 is best for stainless steel and hardened chrome steel shaft in oscillation operation and especially the hardened chrome steel shaft is the best choice in rotation operation.

▊ Chemical resistance

The Chemical Resistance of CSB-EPB8 is fairly good against most of Acid and Alkalis.

▊ Water absorption

The moisture absorption of CSB-EPB8 plastic plain bearings is 0.1% in standard atmosphere. The max. water absorption is 0.1% in water. These values are very low, CSB-EPB8 plastic palin bearings is very well suited for used in water.

▊ UV resistance

Disintegration could be possible for the material CSB-EPB8 after long period of exposing under the UV ray and therefore the compressive strength will be reduced.

▊CSB® bearing material chemical resistance data is a comparison test result of the CSB chemistry laboratory using laboratory specimens or similar chemicals at room temperature 23 ℃, without considering the impact of other temperatures and chemical medium mixtures on the chemical resistance of CSB® bearing materials ; Therefore, this data can only act as a reference. CSB® recommends that the chemical resistance of actual parts should be tested under application conditions and verify the suitability of the bearings.
