528-7404: 130.21mm Inner Diameter Sleeve Bearing

Description: A Sleeve Bearing is a component used in an excavator stick hoe because it can provide low friction support for the rotating joints of the stick. The Stick is a long telescopic arm that extends or retracts to adjust the reach of the excavator's digging tool, which is attached to the end of the stick. The Sleeve Bearing consists of a cylindrical sleeve or bushing that is inserted into a housing and supports a rotating shaft or pin. Attributes: • Accomplishes reduced wear by providing a low-friction surface for the shaft to rotate. • Helps in distributing the load of the shaft over a larger surface area. Applications: A Sleeve Bearing is used to provide support to the rotating joints in the Stick Hoe, predominantly used in Cat 373, 374, and 395 Excavators.
