The Extreme Bearing blocks can absorb expansion of the shaft because there is an adjustment or locating ring in the bearing housing.

A situation can arise where extreme axial displacement is required or a linear movement is required through the bearing unit. For this situation you can choose an Extreme Bearing with a Cylindiche bore without a locking adapter

Calculate the maximum shaft length depending on the temperature in your application. In case you need to mount a long shaft, it is necessary to calculate the thermal expansion or contraction and adjust the bearing position to take this into account. As an example, a stainless steel shaft of 1 metre will become 0.023 mm longer when the temperature rises by 1°C and a carbon steel shaft of 1 metre will become 0.016 mm longer when the temperature rises by 1°C. The table shows the maximum shaft length depending on how the temperature changes during operation after the time of installation.

We have an issue in one installation of our tipping buckets, where we have installed your bearings. We have 3 tipping buckets installed in a storm tank, each is suspended from 2 bearings.

It is possible that the standard option in our Extreme bearings is not sufficient, because your construction has very long shafts, large temperature difference or other causes. in this case we supply an extra extension ring that fits between the bearing unit and the cap.

Tipping buckets are filled with water, and when they are full, they tip due to their geometry, and make a wave to clean the surface. The issue is the following: We have all the bearings tighten to the axis, and we found that the buckets are moving horizontally through the bearings.

The locating ring can be removed from a bearing block of a pair placed opposite each other so that bearing axial displacement is possible.

The seats of an Extreme Bearing are machined to a tolerance in order to provide a loose fit. The bearing seats in the housings are sufficiently wide to allow the bearing axial displacement and likewise to accommodate for thermal expansion of the shaft due to high temperatures.

There is a total clearance available for thermal expansion that is equal to the thickness of the location ring. The expansion and contraction of material must be considered in order to maintain the clearance that is required to operate the bearing well. In the diagram, the clearance for contraction by cooling is indicated by C and the clearance for expansion by heating is indicated by B. The table shows the maximum values for C and B depending on the diameter of the shaft.

Tipping bucket is an element to clean the surface of storm tanks. When a storm happens, the storm tank is filled by water, and after the storm, once it is empty, it is necessary to clean the surface due to the sediments.
