Why do LM 8S and LM 8 need different checks?
Both run on an 8 mm shaft and have a 15 mm outside diameter, but the published body lengths are 17 mm and 24 mm. If the bearing is retained in a close-fitting housing, that 7 mm difference matters. Seal, open or clearance-adjustable variants also need their own code and drawing check.
Do not confuse a round-shaft linear ball bushing with a profiled-rail guideway block. Their mounting, load paths and replacement requirements are different.
What should I send to source a linear bearing?
- Full manufacturer part number, including seal or open-type suffix.
- Shaft diameter, housing bore, bearing body length and quantity.
- Photographs of the old bearing and its markings, or the machine drawing.
- Whether the shaft is worn, plus load, speed and contamination details when known.
If you also need the shaft, include its length, end machining and surface requirements. Compare our precision shaft guide before sending the enquiry.
Linear bearing or HIWIN rail guideway?
A linear bushing runs on a round shaft. A HIWIN HG, MG or RG guideway uses a profiled rail and matching carriage. If you have a rail and block rather than a round shaft and sleeve, use our HIWIN linear guideway guide and send the rail and carriage codes.
