I think you would be disappointed with the results.
Air bearings need very clean dry air to work and
probably wouldn't be happy with the amount of side
load you'd be applying.
Depending on the air pressure available, I think this unit can sustain a
radial working load of 50 Lbs. Yes, it does need clean dry air, as the
clearances in the bearing are INSANELY small, and you have to keep the
journal from rusting.
