Polymer Press-Fit Spherical Bearings


SDP/SI offers inch and metric maintenance-free self-aligning bearings that are low cost and easy to install.
See Series S99GSB-… and S99GSBM… .
Injection molded from high-performance plastics, these bearings are used in various applications where lubricated metal bearings are not suitable. They are lightweight, vibration dampening and provide excellent performance in water, chemicals, and dusty environments.
Applications:
Where ease of assembly is required
Small installation space
Harsh environments
Two-Part Plastic Spherical Bearing
The spherical ball is made of wear-resistant L280 polymer and the housing is made of shock-resistant reinforced plastic. These bearings can operate at speeds up to 100 ft/min (30.48 m/min) due to the low friction coefficient. 80% lighter than steel, they have a high strength-to-weight ratio and long service life. The pivoting capability offers many design advantages and simplified assembly.
Advantages:
Maintenance free
No lubrication
Vibration dampening
Excellent wear resistance
Corrosion resistant
Lightweight
Strong and durable
