EpoxySystems' Product # 5000 Expansion Bearing DESCRIPTION: The ESI #5000 Expansion Bearing is composed of an upper unit, a thin, stainless steel plate bonded to a sole plate and a lower unit composed of Teflon bonded to a durable, resilient fiber-free pad. Sliding or translation occurs between the stainless steel and the Teflon while deflection, rotation and load distribution are accommodated by the resilient pad. Complies with AASHTO standards. UPPER UNIT: Sole Plate: The sole plate shall conform to ASTM A-36, and the dimensions will comply with the details as shown on the structural drawings. All exposed surfaces must be given a prime coat of ESI #1200 two-component, zinc rich primer. Stainless Steel: The stainless sheet shall be no less than 12 gauge, meeting ANSI, type 304 (ASTM A-240) specifications and have a mirror finish of less than 10 micro-inches R.M.S. (Root-Mean-Square) on the side in contact with the teflon. The stainless steel shall be a minimum of 1/4" smaller than the sole plate all around, and these shall be bonded together with a high temperature-resistant epoxy adhesive, or welded. Epoxy: The epoxy adhesive shall meet the following requirements:
LOWER UNIT: TEFLON®: The Teflon, self-lubricating bearing element shall be 1/4" thick and composed of 100% virgin (unfilled) polytetrafluorethylene polymer and shall meet the following requirements.
TEFLON® is a registered trademark of the DUPONT Corporation.
BEARING PAD: ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES:
Tolerances: The expansion bearing total thickness will be +10%. The PTFE thickness shall be -0 + 1/64" Co-Efficient of Friction: The co-efficient of friction between the self-lubricating bearing element (PTFE) and the stainless steel shall not be more than 0.06 at 800 p.s.i. compressive loading.
