Bunting Bearings Sleeve Bearing, Nylon, Inch

This Bunting Bearings nylon plain sleeve bearing supports radial loads. It is made of nylon for resistance to chemicals, corrosion, and abrasion. The bearing has a maximum load value of 400 psi (pounds per square inch), a maximum velocity value of 360 sfpm (surface feet per minute), and a maximum pressure velocity (PV) value of 3,000. It operates over a temperature range of -20 to 250 degrees F (-29 to 121 degrees C). This sleeve bearing is for use in various applications such as automobiles, pumps, office machines, and home appliances, among others.

Plain bearings provide low-friction sliding contact for relative motion between parts of a machine. They are the simplest type of bearing, with no rolling elements, and there are three basic types of plain bearings: radial plain bearings (also called sleeve bearings or bushings) to support rotating or reciprocating shafts, thrust bearings (also called washers) to support axial loads on shafts, and linear bearings to support and guide the motion of parts in a straight line. Flanged sleeve bearings have a flange on one end to support axial loads. Spherical plain bearings are radial bearings that allow for angular misalignment of the shaft. Plain bearings are made from durable, low-friction materials such as sintered or cast bronze alloys, plastic, or a combination of a metal shell and a plastic bearing surface. They can be lubricated externally or by a lubricant embedded in the bearing material. Plain bearings are used in automobiles, construction and mining equipment, textile manufacturing equipment, and robotics, among others.
