Panel-Mount Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings
Unlike other sleeve bearings, these do not need to be fully inserted into a housing. Their unique shape creates a permanent, secure hold in thin panels. Bearings swivel to accommodate up to 5° of shaft misalignment. On startup, friction causes the bronze to release a thin layer of oil on the bearing’s surface. Not for use with plastic panels.
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.

Panel-Mount Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings
Permanently and securely install these self-clinching bearings into panels, with no need for precision-bored holes or machined mounts. They’re often used in areas with tight space restrictions. Install them into sheet metal panels with an air-powered or hydraulic press. They’re not for use in plastic panels. These bearings are self-aligning to compensate for small amounts of shaft misalignment. Made of acetal plastic, they won’t warp or swell when exposed to water, so they’re good for use in washdown environments.

High-Speed Self-Aligning Dry-Running Flanged Sleeve Bearings
Made of acetal with a PTFE filler, these bearings handle velocities up to twice as high as standard acetal bearings. They’re self-lubricating, so they’ll take on less wear for an increased lifespan. Acetal won’t warp or swell from exposure to water, so these bearings are good for use in washdown environments. These bearings swivel to compensate for a small amount of shaft misalignment. Designed for press-fit installation by hand—no tools required—they don’t need to be fitted into a housing. Mount them into injection-molded panels and mounts, thin sheet metal, or hard non-ductile materials.

Panel-Mount Ball Bearings
Unlike other ball bearings, these do not need to be fully inserted into a housing. A spline around the outside of the bearing creates a permanent, secure hold in thin panels. Bearings swivel to accommodate up to 5° of shaft misalignment. Shields keep out dust and contaminants. Not for use in plastic panels.
