    Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Sleeve Bearings. Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings.
    Install and forget these self-lubricating bearings. All are made from porous metal and saturated with oil to reduce maintenance and downtime. A good all-around choice, they are used in everything from palm-sized fans in electronics to tire-sized pulleys. Although these bearings will work in most conditions, oil may drip away if temperatures get too high. Consider a graphite-lubricated bearing for higher temperatures or places where you can’t afford the mess. All are fabricated, lubricated, and inspected in the U.S.
    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.
    841 Bearing Bronze—A classic choice for a starter pick. Also known as SAE 841 bearings.
    Synthetic Oil Base—A high-quality lubricant makes all the difference. Synthetic oil is less sensitive to temperature changes than mineral oil, so it won't get runny and leak away at higher temperatures.

    Small but mighty, our thinnest rolling thrust bearings slot into tight spaces and spin at whirring speeds. Their long, slender rollers support thrust loads and reduce friction in everything from machine tool spindles to gearboxes.
    A cage holds the rollers in place. You can install these bearings without washers between hardened, ground surfaces for the thinnest profile. If you’re working with unhardened, unground surfaces, you’ll need two washers for the rollers to run on. This three-piece design is easy to lubricate, but the oil will attract dust and grime since it’s exposed.
    Steel—Strong and wear resistant. However, these bearings are best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust.

    A gap running along the length of these bearings allows you to quickly squeeze them into a housing—no tools required. Made of naturally slippery plastic, there’s no need to add messy oil that could drip and attract dust.
    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.
    Nylon—The most popular choice, nylon is wear resistant yet economical. Keep in mind, though, that it will swell and weaken when exposed to moisture.

    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.
    MDS-Filled Nylon—A step up from standard nylon bearings. Upgraded with fine particles of molybdenum disulfide (MDS), these bearings have extra lubricity and wear resistance. However, they’re still nylon and will swell and weaken when exposed to moisture.
