Ultra-Low-Friction Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings
For applications with frequent starts and stops, the oil in these bearings contains particles of slippery PTFE that lubricate the bearing during startup.
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.

Panel-Mount Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings
Unlike other sleeve bearings, these do not need to be fully inserted into a housing. Their unique shape creates a permanent, secure hold in thin panels. Bearings swivel to accommodate up to 5° of shaft misalignment. On startup, friction causes the bronze to release a thin layer of oil on the bearing’s surface. Not for use with plastic panels.

Mil. Spec. Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings
To ensure compatibility with other parts, the materials and dimensions of these bearings meet strict military standards. Also known as Oilite® bearings, they are porous bronze, so startup friction causes them to release a thin layer of oil on the bearing’s surface.

High-Load Food Industry Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings
Embedded with oil that is safe for incidental contact with food, these bearings are suitable for use in high-load applications such as bottling and filling lines in food processing plants. They are also known as Super Oilite® bearings. Startup friction releases the embedded oil onto their surface in a thin layer. Bearings are made of 863 iron-copper, which makes these bearings strong and resistant to shock loads.
Bearings with NSF H1 registered lubrication comply with NSF standards for incidental contact with food.

High-Temperature Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings
Graphite provides a layer of dry lubrication that operates in high-temperature environments.
841 bearing bronze bearings are porous and embedded with graphite for continuous lubrication.
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.
