DURALON BEARINGS
Duralon® self-lubricated composite bearings offer maintenance free operation and maximum life in a wide variety of industrial applications. The bearings are constructed using a woven Teflon® fiber fabric liner and continuous strands of fiberglass and epoxy resin. Typical motions include pivot, oscillating, linear sliding and slow speed full rotation. Typical loads range from 4,000 to 30,000 psi.
