Bush and shaft assemblies feature 4-micron clearance

June 30, 2022 By Miles Budimir Leave a Comment

shaft assembly

NB Corporation’s FIT Series of slide bush and shaft assemblies optimize clearance between shaft and bush by offering clearances of 4 microns. Shaft end placement deviation is reduced 70% from the standard 0.046 mm when compared with the FIT Series which is only 0.011 mm. Because NB achieves a perfect fit, designers can take advantage […]
