Completely maintenance-free

Maintenance-free high performance plain bearings in construction machinery

In excavator arms, articulation/swivel joints, wheel suspension arrangements or similar applications, most bearing positions in construction machinery are subjected to swivel motion with high loads.

Under such conditions, rolling bearings are only suitable in certain cases. Where small swivel angles in particular are present and are combined with shocks and vibrations, false brinelling (stationary marks) may occur on the raceways. In addition to jerky running and increased noise, these frequently lead to premature bearing failure.
