Spherical Bearings  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Spherical plain bearings are sliding bearings that serve as machine elements. The inner ring is spherically shaped, while the outer ring has a hollow spheroidal shape. Thus one has a joint that can very well absorb misalignment and misalignment.The spherical plain bearing can tolerate the static forces very well at relatively low pivoting movements and speeds. They are able to withstand large temperature ranges between minus 50 degrees and plus 300 degrees.Use it e.g. in hydraulic applications, here there are ready-to-install rod ends which contain a bearing on the inside. The rod end only needs to be screwed and apart from a threaded hole, no further design is necessary. In addition to radial spherical plain bearings, there are also axial spherical plain bearings and angular contact spherical plain bearings.Spherical plain bearings are available in various sliding pairs. A steel-steel sliding pairing is the simplest version; it is particularly suitable for very high static loads and high-frequency vibrations. Since they require maintenance, they must be relubricated accordingly. Spherical plain bearings with Teflon and hard chrome sliding surfaces, on the other hand, are maintenance-free. However, they have less load-bearing capacity and deform much more under heavy loads.
