LM8LUU 8mm Bushing Longer Linear Ball Bearing

LM8LUU is another type of linear ball bearing, similar to LM6UU but with a larger diameter. In this case, “8mm” refers to the inner diameter of the bearing. These bearings are longer than the standard LM8UU bearings, providing increased support and stability along the shaft.

They are commonly used in applications where higher load capacity and extended support are required, such as CNC machines, 3D printers, and linear motion systems.

The Bearings gives you very precise, safe and reliable linear motion system. Such linear motion bearings are mostly used in 3D printers and CNC(Computer Numerical Control) machines. This Linear Ball Bearing can provide low friction motion along a single axis, hence find a wide range of applications in DIY and robotics prototyping.

This LM8LUU 8mm Bushing Longer Linear Ball Bearing closed type ball bushing has an 8mm bore and 15mm outer diameter is suitable for use in a mounted slide unit to carry components.

Balls in the cage loop run along a smooth ball guide surface to ensure low noise even in the high-speed operation.

Since Linear Motion bearings slide along the round shaft, for the reliable and smooth motion the shaft must be lubricated. The quality of the shaft directly influences the quality of linear motion we get. So, using chrome plated and hardened shaft may serve beneficial.
