REALI-SLIM ® <strong>Bearings</strong> <strong>Catalog</strong> <strong>300</strong> ©KAYDON ® Corporation Issue 10<br />
Product Line Overview<br />
The REALI-SLIM ® product line consists of a family<br />
of seven open (Figure 1-1) and five sealed (Figure<br />
1-2) series of thin-section bearings ranging in bore<br />
diameters from 1.000 inch to 40.000 inches. Series<br />
range from .187 x .187 inch to 1.000 x 1.000 inch in<br />
cross section. Open bearings are available from stock<br />
in three configurations (Types A, C & X). Stock sealed<br />
bearings are available in Types C & X only.<br />
We can provide internal fit up, lubricants, separators<br />
and other features to meet the most demanding<br />
specifications. To obtain corrosion resistance<br />
consider using KAYDON stainless steel REALI-SLIM ®<br />
or ENDURA-SLIM ® series of bearings. ENDURAKOTE ®<br />
plating provides corrosion protection equal to or<br />
better than a full AISI 440C stainless steel bearing and<br />
can be supplied with very quick delivery.<br />
Additional product line variants include: REALI-SLIM MM <br />
metric series bearings, ULTRA-SLIM ® bearings, and<br />
REALI-SLIM TT ® series turntable bearings (Section 2); and<br />
BB metric ball bearings, <strong>Bearings</strong> for Demanding<br />
Applications, and KT thin-section taper bearings<br />
(Section 6).<br />
Within these families, you can generally choose<br />
between open bearings for applications where<br />
bearings will not be exposed to damaging particulates<br />
and sealed bearings for applications where bearings<br />
need to be kept clean and well-lubricated.<br />
To support various load scenarios, REALI-SLIM ®<br />
bearings are available in three basic types: radial<br />
contact (Type C), angular contact (Type A), and fourpoint<br />
contact (Type X)—see pages 10 and 11 for<br />
explanations on each type—and in a variety of sizes,<br />
or series (e.g., KA, KB, KC, etc.).<br />
REALI-SLIM ® bearings are available with various<br />
separator options to space the rolling elements<br />
uniformly and prevent contact between them.<br />
Separator types available include: continuous ring<br />
“snap-over pocket”, continuous ring circular pocket,<br />
formed wire, toroid, PTFE spacers, and spacer ball<br />
separators. See Section 4 for complete details.<br />
SPECIFICATION CONTROL<br />
In today’s world, product traceability is extremely<br />
important. To satisfy these requirements, requesting<br />
a “specification control drawing” for a REALI-SLIM ®<br />
bearing is a valuable option to consider.<br />
A specification control drawing provides the user a<br />
concise description of the important bearing features<br />
and parameters for a specific bearing. a specification<br />
control drawing request will generate a unique<br />
part number for the standard REALI-SLIM ® bearing,<br />
including the commercially available options you have<br />
selected. this provides the customer quick and easy<br />
identification of product in the field as well as a concise<br />
receiving and inspection document for the factory.<br />
