RBC stud type airframe track rollers have been designed
for specific use on track type or cam-controlled equipment
when cantilever mounting is desired.
Each non-separable unit comprises an outer ring, a full
complement of needle rollers, stud, and washer. The O.D. of
the outer ring is chromium plated in accordance with the
AMS-QQ-C-320, Class 2 specifications to a minimum
thickness of .0004 in. All other exposed surfaces are
cadmium or zinc-nickel plated. The sealed track rollers have
seals made from a special plastic or acetal resin.
Track rollers are available with cylindrical or crowned
outer rings. Crowned track rollers reduce the effect of uneven
bearing loading resulting from deflection, bending, or
misalignment in mounting. A track roller with a cylindrical
outer ring is identified by the prefix letters HRS. A track roller
with a crowned outer ring has a letter “C” added to the end
of the prefix code (i.e., HRSC).
Normally, the track rollers are prepackaged with a low
temperature aircraft grease meeting MIL-PRF-81322
specification, when specified.
