This Sealmaster SBG-SS Series two-piece spherical plain bearing is unsealed and is suitable for use in a mounted housing that operates in a corrosive environment to accommodate pivoting and angular misalignment, such as bearing connectors at the ends of hydraulic cylinders that come in contact with chemicals or water that is acidic or alkaline. This bearing's one-piece race is manufactured from 300 series stainless steel for corrosion resistance. The stainless steel ball is heat treated for wear resistance. The race's inner and outer surfaces are precision ground to maximize surface-to-surface contact, lubrication grooves and holes direct grease into the bearing, its outer surface edge is chamfered to ease installation into the housing, and its wide cross section provides high misalignment adjustment. This spherical plain bearing is suitable for use in pivoting and angular misalignment applications in corrosive environments, such as hydraulic cylinders in marine heavy equipment.Rolling bearings use rolling elements to maintain the separation between moving parts to reduce rotational friction and support radial and axial loads. These elements can be one of the following types: ball, cylindrical, spherical, barrel, needle, spindle, or tapered. All roller bearings are open, shielded, or sealed. Sealed bearings are lubricated with oil or grease in the bearing factory, while open and shielded bearings are meant to be lubricated in place, with periodic reapplication of lubrication, based on use. The shield protects the working parts of the bearing from environmental debris that may be introduced and could reduce the ball bearing speed and lifespan. Rolling bearings are used in a range of applications from agricultural machinery to conveying equipment, robotics, dental equipment, elevators, rolling mills, ship rudder shafts, and aggregate crushers, among others.Sealmaster manufactures bearings and bearing accessories.
