6E-4382: Sleeve Bearing

A Sleeve Bearing sometimes called bushings, journal bearings, or plain bearings facilitates motion between two components. They can serve multiple purposes at the same time constrain motion, serve as a guide, provide support, and reduce friction. They work with linear, rotating, and oscillating motion. Sleeve bearings are cylindrical and straight, as opposed to tapered or conical. Sleeve bearings are made of metal, plastic, or fiber-reinforced composite sleeves. Attributes: • Manufactured to precise specifications and are built for durability, reliability, and productivity • Greatly reduce noise at low speeds Applications: A Sleeve Bearing is used for general purposes to reduce the friction between the moving parts.
