Product Description
Plastic bearing is an especially designed rotating element which is manufactured by using materials like acetal, nylon and poly-tetra-fluoro-ethylene with a high density of 2200 kilograms per cubic metres. It has a low thermal conductivity with a high melting point of 327 degree Celsius which make it capable to resist high temperatures. Plastic bearing does not require any external lubrication and is highly resistant to corrosion. It is light in weight and is widely used in applications in medical or food processing environments. It has a low wear rates with an extremely low coefficient of friction. The offered mechanical component is capable to resist heavy axial and radial loading to offer smooth and efficient working of the machines.
Corrosion-Resistant PerformanceBuilt for environments where exposure to moisture and chemicals is routine, this plastic bearing provides superior resistance to corrosion. Its engineering plastic construction protects against acids, alkalis, alcohols, and many solvents, ensuring longevity and reliability even in the toughest conditions.
Maintenance-Free OperationEliminate the hassle of regular lubrication or servicing with this maintenance-free plastic bearing. With a lubricated-free, grease-free design, it reduces operational downtime and simplifies maintenance in high-precision applications.
Versatile Industrial ApplicationsFrom conveyor systems to medical devices, this bearing fits a wide range of uses. Its precision, noise reduction, and chemical resistance make it well suited for the pharmaceutical, food-processing, and chemical industries, where contamination or corrosion can pose significant risks.
FAQs of Plastic bearing:
Q: How does the plastic bearing perform in wet or chemically aggressive environments?
A: This bearing is designed for excellent corrosion resistance due to its engineering plastic materials (POM, Nylon, PTFE). It reliably withstands exposure to water, acids, alkalis, alcohols, and numerous solvents, making it suitable for wet or chemically challenging settings.
Q: What are the main benefits of using a plastic bearing compared to a traditional metal bearing?
A: Plastic bearings are maintenance-free, lightweight, and highly resistant to corrosion and chemicals. They operate quietly and require no lubrication, which reduces maintenance costs and downtime, especially in sensitive environments like food processing or pharmaceuticals.
Q: When should I choose this bearing over a metal alternative?
A: Opt for this plastic bearing in situations that demand excellent corrosion resistance, low noise, and maintenance-free operation, particularly in industries involving chemicals, moisture, or strict hygiene standards, such as food processing and medical devices.
Q: Where can this plastic bearing be used effectively?
A: It excels in conveyors, high-precision machinery, pharmaceutical production lines, food-grade equipment, medical devices, and other settings where chemical exposure or contamination must be minimized.
Q: What is the installation process for this plastic bearing?
A: The bearing is lightweight and easy to install. Its standard dimensions (6 mm bore, 19 mm outer diameter, 6 mm thickness) and open-seal structure allow straightforward placement in most compatible housings without the need for special lubrication.
Q: How does being lubrication-free benefit daily operations?
A: With no grease or oil required, the bearing eliminates the risk of lubricant contaminationa critical advantage in food, chemical, and medical applicationswhile ensuring low friction and smooth, quiet motion.
