Thermoplastic bearings in corrosive environments — the advantages

Abstract

Ball bearings engineered from polymer resins offer, it is stated, significant advantages over their steel counter‐parts in engineering design, especially where moderate running speeds and loadings are experienced. A polymer bearing also gives a far superior performance than can be achieved with a plastics bush for the same duty, yet it costs only a few pence more.
