About Plain Bearings
More
Multipurpose Sleeve Bearings
These 932 bearing bronze bearings are strong, wear resistant, and excellent at handling shock loads. They’re sometimes called 660 leaded bronze 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 Sleeve Bearings with Groove
A figure-8-shaped groove provides a flow path for lubricant, distributing it evenly along the bearing’s surface. Bearings are cast bronze, making them strong, wear resistant, and excellent at handling shock loads. 932 bearing bronze is sometimes called 660 leaded bronze.
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.

Slotted Shims
The slot lets you insert, remove, and adjust the shims without disassembling your machinery, while the tab keeps fingers and tools away from machine feet. Use an insertion tool (sold separately) for better leverage and reach. Shims are etched with the thickness.
18-8 stainless steel shims have a balance of strength and corrosion resistance.

Slotted Shim Sets
Be prepared with slotted shims in a variety of thicknesses. The slot lets you insert, remove, and adjust the shims without disassembling your machinery, while the tab keeps fingers and tools away from machine feet. Use an insertion tool (sold separately) for better leverage and reach. Shims are etched with the thickness. They're made of stainless steel for corrosion resistance.

Color-Coded Slotted Shim Sets
Keep slotted shims in a variety of thicknesses on hand with these sets, which are color-coded by thickness for easy identification. The slot lets you insert, remove, and adjust the shims without disassembling your machinery. Shims are corrosion resistant.
Painted aluminum shims are stronger than plastic shims.
Plastic shims work well in light duty applications.

Heavy Duty Tapered Shims
Ridges keep these aluminum shims from sliding apart when stacked. Designed for aligning shafts and axles, they support heavier loads than plastic tapered shims. For extra stability, screw through the center mounting hole. Also known as pinion shims.

Bearing Separators
Separate bearings, collars, hubs, and other shaft-mounted items so you can remove them. After separation, use a puller (not included) to remove them from the shaft.
Separators can be used with Face-Grip Pullers. Select a face-grip puller with a leg thread size that matches the thread size of your separator.
