240-6382: Straight Sleeve Bearing

Description: A Straight Sleeve Bearing sometimes called bushings, journal bearings or plain bearings facilitates motion between two components. A sleeve bearing is a type of bearing device that creates a friction-free surface between two rotating components. It provides a smooth surface for one part to rotate against, reducing friction and wear between the two parts. They are appropriate for a variety of heavy-duty applications because of their high load capacity. Sleeve Bearings are made of metal, plastic, or fiber-reinforced composite sleeves. Attributes: • Can handle radial load and thrust loads. • Provides shock load resistance due to their greater contact zone. Applications: A Straight Sleeve Bearing is used to reduce the friction between the moving parts, mostly used in CAT 42, 415, 416, 416F2, 415F2, 416F, 420, 420XE, 426, 430, 440, 450, 424B, 426F2, 420F, 420F2, 430F, 430F2, and 430E Backhoe Loaders.
