Radial spherical plain bearing

Detailed Product Description

The radial sphrical bearing are metal-on-metal bearings consisting of a spherically ground inner ring housed in a mating outer ring without any rolling elements.  

The design makes them particularly suitable for bearing arrangements where alignment movements between shaft and housing have to be accommodated, or where oscillating  or slewing movements must be possible at relatively slow sliding speeds.

 While all plain bearings are precision ground and made from through-hardened steel, custom orders are available and can include special materials, clearances, surface finishes or configurations to accommodate unique applications.
