Also known as Oilite® bearings.

With a flexible layer of rubber sandwiched between an oil-embedded bronze bearing and rigid metal shell, these bearings reduce wear and machinery noise.

Use these bearings in applications with frequent starts and stops because they operate with very little friction.

Use where high loads and speeds are not required.

Good for underwater applications, these bearings won’t swell or warp when wet.

Startup friction causes these bearings to release a thin layer of oil on the bearing’s surface. They’re flanged, so they handle loads both parallel and perpendicular to the shaft. They’re also known as Oilite® bearings.

For applications with frequent starts and stops, the oil in these bearings contains particles of slippery PTFE that lubricate the bearing during startup.
