Spherical Plain Bearings

Spherical plain bearings are designed to support heavy radial and axial loads while allowing oscillating movement and misalignment. These bearings are ideal for applications such as construction equipment, heavy machinery, and hydraulic systems where slow movement, high loads, and articulation are common.

Options: Available in a wide range of configurations to meet diverse application requirements, with solutions manufactured under Solve's PTI and TRITAN brands.

Bearing materials include AISI 52100 chrome steel and stainless steel offered for durability and corrosion resistance.

Closure options include open, double sealed, and unsealed configurations to suit various environments. Bearings are available with maintenance-free or relubricatable designs to match maintenance requirements.

Operating temperature capabilities reach up to 300°F depending on configuration.

A wide range of bore diameters, outer diameters, widths, and load ratings are available.
