Spherical plain bearing GX...S series

radialaxialsteel

The spherical plain thrust bearing has a convex sphere on the bearing washer and a concave sphere on the bearing race correspondingly. Though being applicable to axial load, such bearing is also able to withhold joint load from both axial and radial directions. However, the radial load for joint load shall be less than 50% of the axial load. If the radial load is larger, it is recommended to collectively used the thrust bearing together with the radial bearing of GE series. With separable design, the bearing washer and bearing race Special design When being operated under special conditions, the spherical thrust roller bearing may be used and which requires be made by steel/steel or steel/PTFE (maintenance-free) compound materials and integrated with sliding contact surface. This kind of bearing can be supplied as needed. If it is required to operate the bearing without lubricating, the bearing integrating with maintenance-free steel/PTFE compound sliding contact surface shall be adopted (Figure 2). Such combination can withhold heavy load, especially directed heavy load.
