With a 1 inch bore diameter and a dynamic load capacity of 350 pounds, this bearing provides smooth, low-friction shaft guidance in demanding industrial and mechanical environments. The closed bearing style encloses the full circumference of the shaft, offering five ball circuits for load distribution and greater radial load support compared to open configurations. It is typically installed by mechanical technicians and machine builders working on linear motion assemblies, automation equipment, and precision machinery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bearing suits residential and commercial machinery applications where controlled linear motion is required along round steel shafts. The fixed alignment style makes it appropriate for rigid mounting configurations where shaft alignment is pre-established. The closed design provides a contact seal around the shaft, making it preferable in environments where contamination control is a consideration. This part is sold individually and is well-suited for direct OEM replacement or new assembly builds requiring a 1 inch bore linear bearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClosed bearing style with 5 ball circuits for enhanced radial load capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 inch bore diameter with 1-9\/16 inch outside diameter for standardized shaft and housing fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e350 pound closed dynamic load capacity for reliable performance under sustained linear loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction for durability in industrial operating conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFixed alignment style suited for rigid, pre-aligned linear shaft installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOverall length of 2.235 inches for compact integration into linear motion systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-build component for linear motion systems using 1 inch diameter round steel shafts and standard closed linear bearing housings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by qualified mechanical technicians familiar with linear motion systems. Press-fit or housing-mount the bearing carefully to avoid cocking the bore relative to the shaft axis. Ensure the mating shaft and housing bore are clean and within specified tolerances before installation. Retain ring grooves are provided for axial positioning within the housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBearing Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ball Bushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBearing Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Closed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBore Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch (25.40 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-9\/16 inches (1.5625 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.235 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDynamic Load Capacity (Closed)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 350 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDynamic Load Capacity (Open)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Ball Circuits (Closed)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Ball Circuits (Open)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlignment Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fixed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBore Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Round\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.38 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: THOMSON INDUSTRIES\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: A162536\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"THOMSON INDUSTRIES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67909337481522,"sku":"A162536","price":169.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b979536774c753481cf03213d132dc05_f844a4de-2555-4320-ac25-7496c041802e.jpg?v=1791186479","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/thomson-industries-a162536-closed-linear-bearing-1-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
