GE Series Spherical Plain Bearings are sliding bearings consisting of an inner ring with convex sphere outer surface and an outer ring with a concave sphere inner surface. Spherical Plain bearings are used generally for relatively slow tilting and oscillating motions and for applications characterized by high contact pressures. They are particularly suitable for bearing arrangements where a certain misalignment of the shaft with respect to the housing must be accommodated. They can also accommodate heavy radial and/or axial loads dependent upon the design. Spherical Plain Bearings are used in almost all branches of industry like agricultural machinery, Automotive engineering, Cranes, Excavators, Machine tools, Mining machinery, Trailers etc. Rod ends consist of a forged head which terminates in a shaft with mail or female threading and a spherical plain bearing pressed into the head. Rod ends are mainly used in the construction of control rod linkages, where tr-active and compressive loads have to be transmitted through a system of adjustable controls rods.

Radial Spherical plain bearings are design to cater to all heavy loading equipment. Plain bearings are able to cater to various sliding contact surfaces; Steel/PTFE composite material and Steel/PTFE fabric material.

Features 

1, Material: the inner and outer rings are bearing steel(GCr15).

2, Heat Treatment: the inner and outer rings are quenched and phosphating.

3, Structure: It’s without oil groove or oil hole in the inner and outer ring.The outer ring has an axial slot.

4, The sliding surface coated with MoS2 powder lubricant.

5, Performance Characteristic: It has the advantages of abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance,and self aligning . It applies to the machine which requires heavy

Application
