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.

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.

Dry-Running Mounted Sleeve Bearings
Made from slippery materials, these bearings reduce friction without the oily mess. They are self-aligning to compensate for shaft misalignment.
Acetal bearings do not warp or swell when exposed to water, so they’re often used in washdown environments.
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.

High-Speed Dry-Running Mounted Sleeve Bearings with Two-Bolt Flange
Handling speeds twice as fast as standard mounted sleeve bearings while limiting wear on your system, these bearings are made of PTFE-filled acetal. They don’t require any additional lubrication. To compensate for minor shaft misalignment, they’re self-aligning. Mount them using their two-bolt flange.
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.
