Has anyone ever seen a bearing press-fitted to the outside of a ballnut? I am designing a rotating-nut system, and simply pressing the ballnut into the middle of a double-row angular contact bearing would be very simple.
I suppose an alternative would be to look at threading a part of the OD of a flanged ballnut. http://simplybearings.co.uk/shop/p150726/3808B2RSRTVH+Rubber+Sealed+Double+Row+Angular+Contact+Ball+Bearing+40x52x10mm/product_info.html For example looks like a very nice fit on the outside of a 2005 ballnut. I suppose I could easily use the next size up and a threaded sleeve. (I only just found that style, I had been looking at wheel bearings, which also look rather usable, relatively slim, and preload adjustable) -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
