This collection includes models of components for a 3.75-inch bearing assembly. These files are ideal for prototyping or replacement parts for projects involving rotary motion systems. The set includes:
3.75 CAGE: The cage that houses the 0.5-inch ball bearings and ensures even spacing.
3.75 TOP RACE: The top race for the bearing, providing a smooth surface for operation.
3.75 BOTTOM RACE: The bottom race for the bearing, completing the assembly.
These parts are designed with precision for functional use but can also be adapted for educational or demonstration purposes.
Usage Notes:
I have had good results printing with out supports. The cage is optional. The motion is smoother when not using the race, but you will have to fill the track with more ball bearings.
These are the bearings I used, any 0.5" ball bearings or marbles will work:
