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 Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings

Increased iron content makes these bearings stronger and more resistant to shock loads than standard oil-embedded bearings; however they operate at lower speeds. Startup friction causes them to release a thin layer of oil on the bearing’s surface. Color is silver because of the iron. These bearings are also magnetic due to the high iron content.
863 iron-copper bearings are also known as Super 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.

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.

High-Load Ultra-Low-Friction Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings

With extra iron and filled with oil containing slippery PTFE, these bearings support heavy loads that frequently start and stop along shafts. Startup friction causes a thin layer of oil to release onto the surface. Their high iron content also means they resist failing if their load suddenly and drastically increases, but they won’t run as fast as standard 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 Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings

The oil in these bearings is suitable for incidental contact with food. Startup friction produces 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.

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.
Acetal bearings are FDA compliant for direct contact with food. They’re also bright blue, making them easy to spot if they fall into your line.

Quick-Disconnect (QD) Bushings


The screw connections on these bushings easily mate to compatible quick-disconnect sprockets and pulleys. Bushings fit quick-disconnect (QD) sprockets and pulleys of the same bushing style. As you tighten the included screws, the bushing grips the shaft and pulls it into the sprocket or pulley.
304 stainless steel bushings resist corrosion from washdowns and humidity, so they’re common in food-processing plants and other frequently-cleaned areas. You can machine the center of these bushings to fit the exact dimensions of your shaft.

Clamping Shaft Collars

These metal collars are stronger than plastic shaft collars. They clamp evenly around the shaft to create a strong, mar-free hold. To use, slide onto your shaft and tighten the clamping screw to secure.
Black-oxide steel collars have some corrosion resistance. Aluminum collars are lightweight and have good corrosion resistance. 303 stainless steel collars have excellent corrosion resistance.

Tight-Hold Quick-Release Clamping Shaft Collars

A threaded lever lets you tighten these collars with more torque than other quick-release styles, ensuring that they stay put on your shaft. Use them to quickly move components or make setup changes, such as on packing equipment, printers, or label feeding machines. To make adjustments in tight spaces, lift the lever and twist to the side. Similar to a ratchet, you can lift the lever to disengage from the threads and reposition.
Black oxide steel collars are very strong, but will rust if exposed to moisture.
Anodized aluminum is strong and lightweight. It can withstand humidity without rusting, but water left on the surface will cause it to corrode.
303 stainless steel collars can handle frequent exposure to water without rusting.

Clamping Two-Piece Shaft Collars

These metal collars are stronger than plastic shaft collars. The two-piece design allows you to install them anywhere on a shaft without removing components or having access to the ends of the shaft. Collars clamp evenly around the shaft to create a strong, mar-free hold. Tighten the clamping screws to secure.
Black-oxide steel collars have some corrosion resistance. Aluminum collars are lightweight and have good corrosion resistance. In addition to the benefits of aluminum, anodized aluminum collars have extra corrosion resistance, and you can tighten the clamping screw with more torque, so they stay in place. 303 stainless steel collars have excellent corrosion resistance.

Quick-Release Two-Piece Clamping Shaft Collars

Make quick adjustments to these shaft collars with a lever on the side. Often used on packing equipment, printers, and label feeding machines, these collars are used to quickly move components or make setup changes. To make adjustments in tight spaces, lift the lever and twist to either side. Similar to a ratchet, you can tighten and loosen with the lever down; lift the lever to disengage from the threads and reposition. The two pieces of the collar separate, so you can install them anywhere on a shaft without removing components or having access to the end.
Black oxide steel collars are very strong, but will rust if exposed to moisture.
Anodized aluminum is strong and lightweight. It can withstand humidity without rusting, but water left on the surface will cause it to corrode.

Clamping Vibration-Damping Precision Flexible Shaft Couplings


Designed to grip evenly around your shaft, these couplings provide more holding power than set screw couplings without marring the shaft. Tighten the clamping screws to secure. Good for precision motor and pump applications, the spider-shaped cushion reduces shock and compensates for minor shaft misalignment. Couplings allow zero backlash (no play).
A complete coupling consists of two hubs and one spider (each component sold separately). Hubs are lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminum. Spiders are polyurethane for fair vibration damping and good chemical resistance.

Linear Ball Bearings

Bearings are for use with round end-supported shafts. To install, slide bearings into a housing (not included). For bearings with retaining ring grooves, secure with two retaining rings (sold individually).
Bearings with end seals keep lubricant in and dust out.
Bearings with stainless steel balls are more corrosion resistant than bearings with steel balls.
Fixed-alignment bearings are for use where shaft misalignment is unlikely.
