Sealed bearing cartridges offer a costeffective, maintenance-free alternative to conventional greased bronze, hardened steel, and rolling-element bearings in demanding applications including ...

Technically speaking, the correct terminology for a throwout bearing is release bearing, as in clutch release bearing. When considered in those terms, it's easier to imagine what this component is and ...

Visionary films set in the technologically advanced future have long imagined cars that ride around on frictionless orbs similar to Star Wars’ BB-8. We aren’t there yet, as cars still use wheels and ...

Wheels turning at 800 revolutions per mile can generate a lot of friction and heat. Roller-type or ball bearings packed in grease inside all four wheel hubs allow wheels to spin freely without ...

The self-lubricating cartridges eliminate the need for automated greasing systems. The units can handle bearing stresses to 90,000 lbf/in.², have good wear rates, are dimensionally stable, and ...
