PACAMOR KUBAR BEARINGS offers a range of retainer designs and materials including, but not limited to Crown, Ribbon, heat and moisture resistant Phenolic, and Torlon (polyamide-imide). In addition to selecting the right retainer for your miniature and instrument bearing application, dissimilar materials can prevent component welding and extend the life of the bearing in a variety of applications.
To this end, we offer standard 400C stainless steel or optional ceramic balls or titanium carbide coated 440C stainless steel balls in our miniature and instrument bearing designs.
PACAMOR KUBAR BEARINGS precision miniature and instrument bearings are available with up to ABEC 9 tolerances (as defined by the American Bearing Manufacturers' Association) with an optional flanged outer ring.

Special Feature
X = special feature or change in standard dimension to basic bearing number
A = tapered O.D.
Material
S = AISI44OC stainless steel
Type (F)
F = flanged bearing No Symbol = straight O.D.
Style (R)
R symbol is to be used for all miniature and instrument bearings to signify single row.
Retainer (B, PH) - When blank, manufacturer standard or option.
Standard retainer could be either one piece crown or two piece ribbon type. When Blank = manufacturer's standard B = Two Piece Ribbon PH = Phenolic Crown Retainer
