Linear Ball Bearing – Round Flanged IPF04G 1/4″ ID
Linear ball bearing 1/4" ID round-flanged, end mount, standard size, featuring a heat-treated alloy steel shell for durability. The round flange allows flexible rotational positioning during installation while avoiding corner interference in tight spaces. A low coefficient of friction, recirculating hardened steel balls, and a molded polymer resin retainer support smooth, quiet, high-speed operation. Linear ball bearings excel in cantilevered applications because their rolling-element design handles overhung loads and offset drive forces without being constrained by the restrictive 2:1 binding rule that applies to plain bearings. Standard double seals provide added protection at no extra cost.
