Our simplest-to-use thrust bearings, with no moving parts and no need to lubricate. Their porous surface releases oil over time, so you can install and forget them. While they run in most conditions, oil may drip away if temperatures climb too high. For extremely hot environments, consider graphite-lubricated bearings. All are fabricated, lubricated, and inspected in the U.S.

Combine naturally slippery PTFE with the strength of metal. These bearings don't need lubricant, so there's no oil to maintain, drip off, or attract dust. Backed with steel, they're as strong as other all-metal thrust bearings. However, they're best for dry environments since moisture will cause the steel to rust.

Transfer torque directly from a shaft to a hub. These bushings install over your hub to mount a sprocket, pulley, or gear to a shaft at the same time. Common in industrial gearbox applications, they can also connect a hollow shaft over a solid shaft. As screw-clamp bushings, they're good for shock loads. When you tighten the included clamping screws, the outer rings compress against a sprocket, pulley, or gear in between them, causing the inner rings to tighten around the shaft.

Slide these traditional collars from one end of the shaft and tighten the set screw. They dig into the shaft for a secure hold, but one that leaves a gouge. For maximum holding power, make sure the set screw is harder than the shaft.

Flip the lever to install, reposition, and remove these collars. They clamp firmly and evenly without marring your shaft.

Slide these collars from one end of your shaft and tighten the clamping screw. They grip firmly and evenly without marring the shaft, so you can reposition or remove them later.
