1.256" ID Bearings | McMaster-Carr

With thick, tapered rollers, these thrust bearings are the strongest we offer. The rollers spin inside a raceway instead of a cage, so there’s room for more rollers to support higher loads than three-piece designs. You’ll often find them on crane hooks and kingpins that connect semi-trailers to semi-tractors. However, they rotate at a fraction of the speed of other roller thrust bearings.

Since they come as one piece, you don’t need to assemble cages and washers to install. An outer band holds the rollers inside the raceway, keeping lubricant in and dirt out.

Steel—Strong and wear resistant. However, these bearings are best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust.

Open—With no rubber seal to block airflow, these bearings dissipate heat quickly, extending the life of the lubricant and reducing friction over time.

Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings

Made of naturally slippery plastic so you’ll never have to add lubricant. They’re ideal for clean environments where you need to prevent oil drips or graphite flakes. Compared to metal bearings, they are lighter and will never rust.

With no moving parts, sleeve bearings are the simplest way to support the load of a rotating shaft while reducing friction. Also known as plain bearings.

High-Load Ultra-Chemical-Resistant Polyester Fabric-Reinforced PTFE—Woven polyester resin reinforces these PTFE bearings to support loads and speeds comparable to metal bearings. Similar to other PTFE options, they are unaffected by the harsh fluids that other plastics can't handle, including all strong acids and bases.

Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings for Food and Beverage

Made of plastics permitted by the US FDA for contact with food, these bearings won’t release harmful, smelly, and distasteful impurities into your food or beverage production line. These self-lubricating plastics eliminate the need for oil, resulting in less maintenance and improved hygiene. You’ll find them inside food-processing equipment such as mixers, conveyors, and fillers.

With no moving parts, sleeve bearings are the simplest way to support the load of a rotating shaft while reducing friction. Also known as plain bearings.

Moisture-Resistant UHMW Polyethylene—Virtually nonabsorbent, these bearings will keep their shape after washdowns. However, they aren’t suitable for high-temperature treatments such as steam cleaning.

Dry-Running Flanged Sleeve Bearings for Food and Beverage

Flanged sleeve bearings combine a sleeve and thrust bearing in one. The flange supports thrust loads and prevents the bearing from being pushed out of place. The sleeve is the simplest way to support the load of a rotating shaft while reducing friction. Also known as plain bearings.
