8mm ID Bearing Plate for 15x15 Aluminum Extrusion (REV 15mm / Misumi Series 3)

kr 0,00 NOK (plus tax)

A bolt-on bearing plate that carries an 8mm shaft (7mm hex) on 15x15 aluminum extrusion.

The plate holds an 8mm ID, 14mm OD flanged ball bearing (MF148ZZ or goBILDA 1611 series) and bolts to the side of REV 15mm Extrusion or Misumi HFS3 Series 3 15x15 profile. Four M3 holes on 8mm spacing line up with the extrusion slot, so you can slide the plate along the rail and square up your shaft before you lock it down. The plate is 4mm thick, the same width as an MF148ZZ, so the bearing sits flush with the face.

Pair it with my 8mm ID Bearing to 5mm Hex Adapter and a REV 5mm hex shaft runs on standard 8mm bearings. 

What's included:

  • Editable STEP file
  • The 3MF file, ready to slice and print.

Specs:

  • Bearing: 8mm ID x 14mm OD flanged (MF148ZZ sits flush; the 5mm thick goBILDA 1611 sits 1mm proud)
  • Plate: 36.7 x 31.5 x 4mm
  • Mounting: 4x M3 clearance holes on 8mm spacing
  • Shaft center: 15.5mm from the bolt line
  • Extrusion: REV 15mm Extrusion, Misumi HFS3 Series 3 (15x15mm)
  • Fasteners: M3 machine screws & M3 hex nuts in the slot

3D Printing Tips

If the design includes 3D printed parts, I highly recommend you print the part out of PCTG. It has some of the highest impact resistance and non-catastrophic breaking for robot parts.

  • If you're looking for a brand, 3D-Fuel is pretty solid in the Americas
  • Azure is better in the EU

For Mechanical/structural parts, I recommend: 

  • 0.6mm Nozzles over 0.4mm. Wider nozzles produce stronger prints in shorter periods of time over thinner nozzles. 
  • Minimum 4 walls. 
  • 30-40% gyroid infill
