The information guide in this engineering section enables the designer to establish parameters which will provide maximum performance of a bearing in the application. Columbia Industrial Products provides technical assistance on material selection and overall design.
During composite bearing selection there are many effects on the bearing to take into consideration including: CIP Composite bearings operate at different press fits and running clearances than bronze or other metal bearings; Composite bearings require a heavier press fit to retain the bearing in the housing; and running clearances are larger in order to reduce heat buildup in the bearing.
Recommended shaft materials are stainless steels or hardened steel. The suggested minimum hardness is Rockwell 80B. The surface finish should be from 4-32 micro-inches (0.7 Ra). Hard chrome plating may cause premature wear and should be avoided. Holes in the shaft for greasing should also be avoided as the edge of the hole could cut the bearing. The bearing housing should have a chamfer for lead-in. The installer should use a press-in, draw-in or freeze-in method. Do not hammer-in; bearing may become damaged. Bearing wall thickness is very important. The correct wall thickness gives the bearing the proper strength to stay in the housing. Use Table E as a guide for proper wall thickness. The following Calculation pages and Tables will guide you through sizing a composite bearing.
The first step in sizing a bearing is to gather the correct information. Use the Application Questions sheet for this task.

The .0008 (0.02mm) is the amount that the interference or press will be reduced from the 100% or .004 (0.1mm). So the ID will shrink by .0032 (0.08mm) not .004 (0.1mm). The wall thickness is the control over the amount of press absorbed.

For operating temperatures exceeding Series 100 & 200 grades, use Series 300 to 400 F (204C) with a compressive strength of 35,000 PSI (241 MPa). Series 300 is available with the same solid lubricants as the standard grades. As is common with all resin bonded fabrics, CIP has a low thermal conductivity. Under normal circumstances frictional heat is removed via the mating metal surface. However, in cases where shafts or housings are conducting heat to the bearing assembly, the lubricant must be sufficient to remove both frictional and conducted heat. The removal of frictional heat may be improved, particularly in dry running applications, by using the housing as the main heat conductor. The wall thickness of bearings should be kept to a minimum in order to improve heat dissipation. Thermal expansion of CIP material is greater than that of most metal alloy bearings and the characteristic must be taken into account in designs for higher temperature applications.

Absorbed is, interference or press (say .004 for a 3 1/2 shaft with .40 wall) minus 20% of the .004 or .0008 . The .0008 is the amount that the interference or press will be reduced from the 100% or .004 . So the ID will shrink by .0032 not .004 .

CIP Composite materials are easily machined by using conventional tooling and methods. You can use the same methods as you would for Aluminum or Brass. CIP Composites are machined dry. Dust mask and or work area air suction is suggested. For lathe work, carbide or diamond tipped tools can be used to generate a fine surface finish. Diamond tool tips do not produce as much heat when cutting and are suggested for best results. CIP Composites are 100% bearing material with no fillers.
