The round flange provides direct mounting with a circular footprint while retaining the LIN dry-running sliding element. The circular flange keeps the fastening footprint symmetric around the shaft axis. It is a practical choice for plates already drilled around a round bearing station.
The flange changes mounting, not the base sliding material. The source still places dry steel friction at 0.05–0.15 and density at 1.48 g/cm³. The published thermal window allows continuous use from -50 °C through +90 °C; +120 °C is listed only for short-duration exposure.

Application Notes
Round-flange versions suit symmetric mounting stations, rotating fixtures with an axial slide, and compact plates where a circular bolt pattern is already machined.
For LIN-01RF, corrosion resistance and lubricant-free travel can simplify machine housekeeping. The catalogue also notes that the LIN material can be cleaned with disinfecting solution, which is useful context for equipment where oil migration would be undesirable.
Sizing Checks
Measure the round flange outside diameter and pitch circle together with the body size. This is especially important when replacing a metal ball bushing with a polymer flanged unit.
After the geometry is identified, compare the real duty with the dry-running material limits. Record load, sliding speed, stroke, shaft finish and operating temperature in the RFQ so LIN-01RF is checked as a system rather than as a bore-size lookup.
Assembly & Care
Clean the circular flange face and tighten it evenly so the bearing axis remains perpendicular to the mounting plate. Periodic inspection should focus on shaft scoring and increasing running clearance.
This family does not depend on scheduled grease replenishment. Inspection should instead look for abnormal clearance, embedded abrasive particles, heat and uneven wear; those symptoms often point to shaft or alignment issues around the LIN-01RF installation.
