Features

High load capacity and long life

The ball contact raceway surface of the load plate is precision ground in the shape of a circular arc. This allows for approximately 3 times the load capacity and 27 times the service life compared to conventional products.

High load capacity and long life

Self aligning

The load plate is thicker in the center and thinner at both ends to allow alignment movement around the center and to absorb machining and installation errors of the housing and shaft.

Self aligning

Floating Seal

The floating seal smoothly follows the shaft even if there is eccentricity in the O.D. or I.D. of both ends, thanks to the NB TOP BALL's characteristic self-aligning property. The floating seal also allows for compact design, with no change in overall length with or without the seal.

Floating Seal

High-Speed Support

The NB Top Ball is a product that enables excellent high speeds. It can be used for motion speeds up to 5 m/s.

Adjusting one's space

The load plate is assembled free in the plastic outer casing. The load plate is assembled into the clearance adjustment housing to allow clearance adjustment between the ball and the shaft.

Top Ball Unit

The top ball unit has the housing inner diameter and other dimensions set appropriately to maximize the features of the top ball.
