Characteristics

Good calibration/sizing assembly (zero-clearance)
Fluids like oil or water permit higher PV factors
Friction factor not affected by “stick - slip” effect
Higher Chemical resistance to industrial fluids and gases (we recommend previous test for new application / project)
Volume resitivity could be > 10Ω, but completely depends on surface contact in assembly

Self‐lubricated sliding bearings have the ability to transfer a microscopic amount of lubrication film to the mating surface to enhance performance & to reduce friction throughout its operating life, without any added grease or oils and ensuring clean, maintenance free operation in the most challenging environments.
