Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings
Startup friction causes these 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.

High-Load Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings
Bearings with
6061 Aluminum Shell
A metal shell adds strength.
Frelon bearings with 6061 aluminum shell reduce vibration and are chemically inert.
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.

Ultra-Low-Friction Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings
Use these bearings in applications with frequent starts and stops because they operate with very little friction.
Rulon J bearings handle higher operating temperatures than PTFE or thermoplastic-blend 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.

Light Duty Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings
Use where high loads and speeds are not required.
MDS-filled nylon bearings create less friction than standard nylon bearings, making them more wear resistant.
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.
