What are Plain Bearings?
Plain bearings are a type of bearing that uses a lubricated sliding surface between the inner and outer surfaces to reduce friction and wear.
Bearing Types
Common plain bearings come in the following types:
◆Spherical plain bearings can handle misalignment and axial loads. They have an inner ring with a convex surface, an outer ring with a concave surface, and lubricant in between.
◆Sleeve bearings are cylindrical sleeves that provide a low friction surface between two moving parts. They're often made of bronze, brass or plastic and lubricated with oil or grease.
Both types are designed to suit specific applications and provide support for rotating parts.
Features of Plain Bearings
◆Simple design
◆Wide range of materials
◆Low friction
◆High load capacity
◆Self-lubricating
◆Able to accommodate misalignme
What are Plain Bearings Used For?
Plain bearings are used for applications where low friction and high load capacity are required. They have a wide range of uses across various industries such as automotive, industrial machinery, aerospace, construction equipment, and marine applications.
