Are your industrial shafts looking worn out? Give them some support using this SKF plain bearing. The sleeve allows for a smooth sliding motion, reducing friction between moving surfaces. You can use this versatile straight bushing type with oscillating, rotating or linear radial loads. Its thin-walled PTFE construction gives it a light and efficient weight of 3g while remaining durable enough to handle heavy dynamic loads of up to 8kN. As this material is corrosion-resistant, it's a suitable choice for humid settings.

• Reduces heat buildup to keep equipment operating temperatures low and efficient
• Maintenance-free for optimal productivity
• High average sliding speed of 2mps, thanks to its superior heat dissipation and low surface friction

• Automotive manufacturing
• Food and beverage processing
• Oil and gas production
• Agricultural machinery

A vast operating temperature range between -200°C and +250°C means you can put the component to work in almost any environment.

As well as being lightweight, PTFE resists solvents and chemicals for wide compatibility with hygienic areas.
