Low Roller Bearing Help
Low Roller Bearing Help
(OP)
Great forum!
I'm looking for a low-profile angular-contact roller bearing. ID app 2" and heaight around 1/4". The bearing will expereience light axial and radial loads and must be low cost. Precision isn't critical. So far all I have found is higher cost ($120 +) bearings.
Thought of machining a bushing but the small rotating platform will be driven by a low torque stepper so low friction is important.
Any ideas are appreciated.
Thanks,
JB

I am not sure but I would think those (deep groove ball bearings) are more of a high-volume low-cost commodity item than angle-contact bearings.
