599-7098: 12mm Outer Diameter Walkway Bushing

A Sleeve Bearing sometimes called bushings, journal bearings, or plain bearings facilitates motion between two components. 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. This Sleeve Bearing is placed inside the assembly to provide smooth movement in the handrail. Attributes: • Manufactured to precise specifications and are built for durability, reliability, and productivity. • Greatly reduce noise at low speeds. • Provides mechanical stability with low coefficients of friction. • Can handle radial load and thrust loads. • Provides shock load resistance due to their greater contact zone. Applications: A Straight Sleeve Bearing is used in the handrail to provide smooth movement in the handrail located in the walkway group, generally used to reduce the friction between the moving parts.
