Food Industry Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings

Made of FDA-listed materials or FDA compliant, these bearings are for use in food applications. They also withstand caustic and washdown environments.
Rulon 641 bearings are stronger than UHMW and acetal 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.

Easy-Install Dry-Running Flanged Sleeve Bearings

A slit running along the length of these bearings allows you to quickly slip them into a housing—no tools required.
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 Flanged 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.
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.
