Re: Flanged Roller Bearings

I was just considering using them as a bearing for a crab drive module, able to handle the weight of the robot, side loads form impacts and pushing as well as the rotation of the module itself. It would be useful to have all of this accomplished with one mechanism, instead of having to add weight and complexity using 2 types of bearings.
