16.032mm ID Bearings | McMaster-Carr

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.

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.

Moisture-Resistant Plastic Blend—Similar to UHMW, these bearings will keep their shape after washdowns but won’t hold up to steam cleaning. They're bright blue so they are easy to spot if they fall into your production line.
