    Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Sleeve Bearings. Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings.
    Install and forget these self-lubricating bearings. All are made from porous metal and saturated with oil to reduce maintenance and downtime. A good all-around choice, they are used in everything from palm-sized fans in electronics to tire-sized pulleys. Although these bearings will work in most conditions, oil may drip away if temperatures get too high. Consider a graphite-lubricated bearing for higher temperatures or places where you can’t afford the mess. All are fabricated, lubricated, and inspected in the U.S.
    With no moving parts, sleeve bearings are the simplest way to support the load of a rotating shaft while reducing friction. Also known as plain bearings.
    841 Bearing Bronze—A classic choice for a starter pick. Also known as SAE 841 bearings.
    Synthetic Oil Base—A high-quality lubricant makes all the difference. Synthetic oil is less sensitive to temperature changes than mineral oil, so it won't get runny and leak away at higher temperatures.

    Clamp-On Shaft Mount

    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 trade number. As you tighten the included screws, the bushing grips the shaft and pulls it into the sprocket or pulley.

    Mount these hubless bushings flush into your sprocket or pulley for a slim profile with no protruding screws. They are for use with taper-lock sprockets of the same bushing trade number. As you tighten the included set screws, the bushing grips the shaft and pulls it into your sprocket or pulley.

    Hub-Mount Screw-Clamp Bushings

    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.

    Two-Piece Rigid Shaft Coupling Bridges

    When your shafts are not close enough to use standard couplings, these have the length to bridge the gap. Install them anywhere on a shaft without removing components or having access to the ends of the shaft. Tighten the clamping screws to secure. Good for high-torque applications, rigid couplings connect two shafts that are aligned, allowing for no relative movement between the shafts.

    Wider and thicker with a larger clamping screw, these shaft collars deliver a stronger grip than standard collars. Slide them from one end of your shaft and tighten the screw. They clamp firmly and evenly without marring the shaft, so you can reposition or remove them later.

    Attach these traditional collars anywhere along a shaft when other components are already installed or you can't access the ends. Their set screw digs into the shaft for a tight, permanent hold, but one that leaves a gouge. For maximum holding power, make sure the set screw is harder than the shaft.
