About Plain Bearings

Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings
Startup friction causes these porous bronze bearings to release a thin layer of oil on the bearing’s surface. They are also known as Oilite® bearings.
Note: Dynamic load capacity is the maximum load a bearing can withstand at a given shaft speed. If your application’s load and speed requirements are below the values listed, the bearing will work.

Multipurpose Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings
Reinforced with polyester fabric, these plastic bearings have load and speed capabilities comparable to metal bearings. Bearings resist corrosion in outdoor and saltwater environments.
Bearings with seals block out dust and contaminants.
Note: Dynamic load capacity is the maximum load a bearing can withstand at a given shaft speed. If your application’s load and speed requirements are below the values listed, the bearing will work.

Wheel Reducer Bushings
Reduce the inside diameter of a bearing to fit a particular axle size. Also known as spanner bushings, they also reduce wear on the axle when used in plain bores and with straight roller bearings. All have a hole for lubrication.
Washers slide over the bushing and add 3/32" to the hub length of your wheel. Multiple washers can be used to match the length of the bushing.
