Description

CY Ball Transfer Bearing Units — Smooth, Omnidirectional Conveyor Roller Wheels for Any Load

When your conveyor line, assembly table, or material-handling station demands frictionless, multi-directional movement, a worn or mismatched roller wheel creates costly bottlenecks. Engineers, fabricators, and maintenance teams rely on CY-series ball transfer bearing units to keep workpieces gliding effortlessly across surfaces — no jams, no manual repositioning.

Each unit consists of a hardened load ball seated in a precision-formed housing packed with recirculating steel balls, available in three materials: carbon steel for general-purpose industrial use, nylon for lightweight or static-sensitive applications, and stainless steel for corrosive or washdown environments. The CY series spans four load capacities — CY-8H, CY-12H, CY-15H, and CY-22H — with housing diameters ranging from approximately 8 mm to 22 mm (0.31 in to 0.87 in) and mounting thread sizes to match.

Typical use cases include gravity conveyor tables for box and tote routing, CNC fixture plates requiring part repositioning without lifting, and food-processing or cleanroom lines where a stainless steel ball transfer unit for conveyor systems is required. The nylon variant is a popular choice as a lightweight ball transfer wheel for DIY assembly tables, while the carbon steel option suits heavy-duty ball transfer bearing units for industrial conveyor lines.

🔩 Compatible with standard conveyor frames, T-slot extrusion tables, welded steel fixtures, and flat mounting plates. Verify thread size and housing diameter against your frame spec before ordering.

✅ Key Features of These CY Ball Transfer Bearing Units

  • 🔄Full 360° Omnidirectional Rolling — The recirculating ball design allows workpieces to move in any horizontal direction without repositioning the unit, reducing cycle time on assembly and sorting lines.
  • ⚙️Three Material Options for Every Environment — Carbon steel suits standard industrial loads; nylon reduces weight and eliminates static discharge risk; stainless steel resists corrosion in wet, chemical, or food-grade settings.
  • 📐Four Size Variants (CY-8H to CY-22H) — Housing diameters from ~8 mm to ~22 mm (0.31 in–0.87 in) with corresponding load ratings, letting you match the unit precisely to your frame and load requirements.
  • 🔧Threaded Mounting for Tool-Free Swap-Outs — The H-suffix threaded shank screws directly into tapped holes or standard hex nuts, enabling fast field replacement without welding or special tooling.
  • 🛡️Hardened Load Ball for Long Service Life — The top load ball is hardened to resist deformation under repeated point loads, maintaining smooth rolling performance over extended duty cycles.
  • 📦Sold in Practical Pack Quantities — Available in multi-piece packs suited to populating full conveyor tables or fixture plates in a single order, minimizing reorder frequency.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose between CY-8H, CY-12H, CY-15H, and CY-22H?

The number in the model name corresponds to the approximate housing diameter in millimeters. Larger models (CY-15H, CY-22H) carry higher loads and suit heavier workpieces or wider frame pitches. Smaller models (CY-8H, CY-12H) are ideal for lighter parts or tighter grid layouts. Check the load rating listed in the variant options against your maximum workpiece weight before selecting.

What is the difference between the carbon steel, nylon, and stainless steel versions?

Carbon steel units offer the highest load capacity at the lowest cost and are suited for dry, indoor industrial environments. Nylon units are lighter, electrically non-conductive, and gentler on delicate workpiece surfaces — a good fit for electronics assembly or DIY tables. Stainless steel units resist rust and chemical exposure, making them the right choice for food processing, pharmaceutical, or outdoor washdown applications.

Will these ball transfer units rust or corrode over time?

Carbon steel units can develop surface rust if exposed to moisture or chemicals without protective coating — they are best used in dry indoor settings. Nylon units are inherently corrosion-resistant. Stainless steel units provide the strongest corrosion resistance and are suitable for wet or chemically active environments. For outdoor or washdown use, always select the stainless steel variant.

What frames or surfaces are these units compatible with?

The H-type threaded shank mounts into any tapped hole or standard hex nut that matches the thread specification of the chosen model. They are widely used in welded steel conveyor frames, aluminum T-slot extrusion tables, flat steel plates, and custom fabricated fixtures. Confirm the thread size and housing diameter against your frame's tapped hole spec before ordering.

How strong are these ball transfer units under load?

Each model has a rated static and dynamic load capacity that varies by size and material. The hardened load ball and recirculating inner balls distribute point loads evenly, resisting deformation under repeated use. For exact load ratings per model, refer to the variant options or contact us to confirm suitability for your specific application.

Can I use these on a DIY workbench or home assembly table?

Yes. The CY-8H and CY-12H nylon variants are particularly popular for DIY assembly tables and hobby workbenches because they are lightweight, easy to install with a standard wrench, and won't scratch softer workpiece materials. Simply drill and tap a grid of holes in your tabletop at the desired pitch and thread the units in by hand.

Do I need any special tools to install or replace these units?

No special tooling is required. The threaded shank design means you can install or swap out a unit using a standard open-end wrench or socket that matches the hex flats on the housing. This makes field replacement fast and straightforward without disassembling the surrounding structure.
