Spherical Ball Bushings

Spherical ball bushings, also known as spherical plain bearings, are a versatile type of plain bearing that can accommodate complex loads and angular motion without the risk of misalignment. They consist of an inner and outer ring with spherical sliding surfaces, allowing them to handle large radial and bidirectional axial loads simultaneously. This design makes them well-suited for applications with fixed directional loads or where lubrication is not possible, such as in food processing machinery, construction equipment, and other environments where oil is undesirable. Spherical ball bushings are available in a wide range of sizes and can be customized with special materials, clearances, and surface finishes to suit unique applications across industries like heavy machinery, aerospace, and movable structures.
