High-Load Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings

Plastic Bearings
with Steel Shell
A metal shell adds strength.
Bronze-backed PTFE bearings with steel shell combine high-load and high-speed capabilities. They resist swelling when exposed to moisture and are electrically conductive.
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 Flanged Sleeve Bearings

Use these bearings in applications with frequent starts and stops because they operate with very little friction.
Rulon J bearings stand up to higher temperatures than PTFE and 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.

Food Industry Dry-Running Flanged Sleeve Bearings

Made of FDA listed materials for use in food applications, these bearings also withstand caustic and washdown environments.
Rulon 641 bearings are stronger than UHMW bearings and withstand a wider range of temperatures.
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.

Chemical-Resistant Dry-Running Flanged Sleeve Bearings

These bearings stand up to a wider range of chemicals than other dry-running flanged sleeve bearings. They are lightweight and strong.
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.

Water-Resistant Dry-Running Flanged Sleeve Bearings

Good for underwater applications, these bearings won’t swell or warp when wet.
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.
