A bearing device is provided in which a contact portion between centering plates of an outer sleeve and a housing would neither be abraded nor deformed and which is superior in practicality, reduction of weight, durability and mass production even if the housing is made of synthetic resin and light in weight. The bearing device includes the housing (2) into which an outer sleeve (1) is inserted and a shaft (3) inserted into the outer sleeve (1). The housing (2) with the outer sleeve (1) is slidable in a linear relative to the shaft (3). The outer sleeve (1) has a ball endless recirculation path defined by a loading portion and a non-loading portion. Balls (5) are arranged in the ball endless recirculation path by a retainer (4). Centering plates (6) which may move finely are provided in the outer sleeve (1). The housing (2) is made of synthetic resin and a portion with the centering plates (6) are brought into contact when the outer sleeve (1) is mounted on the housing (2) is made of anti-abrasion material (7) such as metal.
A bearing device comprising a housing into which an outer sleeve is inserted and a shaft inserted into said outer sleeve, wherein said shaft and said housing with said outer sleeve are relatively slidable in a linear fashion, characterized in that said outer sleeve has a ball endless recirculation path defined by a loading portion and a non-loading portion, balls are arranged in said ball endless recirculation path by a retainer, centering plates which may move finely are provided in said outer sleeve, said housing is a monolithic unit of synthetic resin having an inner surface that is substantially cylindrical in shape and hollow therethrough and capable of enclosing said outer sleeve within its inner surface, and an anti-abrasion material, is arranged within said housing between the opposing contact points of said centering plates and said housing.
