Product Overview
Recognized by engineers and industrial users for their long life, sleeve bearings are offered as an available option on all TITANÒ horizontal ODP, WP-I and WP-II enclosures. Sleeve bearings operate on a
thin film of oil supplied by oil ring or flood lubrication and are frequently applied to high(er) speed direct connected loads. Sleeve bearings have a very limited capacity for any external radial loads, but when applied and maintained correctly, they offer an infinite (theoretical) life.
U.S. Motors offers a unique sleeve bearing product when evaluated against the typical competitive design. The USEM two piece, spherically seated bearing has become an industry benchmark which provides significant advantages over the fixed seated bearing.
