Joint bearing is a type of metal to metal contact bearing consisting of a ground spherical inner ring and a matched outer ring, without any rolling elements. This type of bearing is made of hardened steel and can be customized according to customer needs through precise grinding, including the use of special materials, clearance, surface polishing, or construction to adapt to special application scenarios.
Size range: Inner diameter 12.7 mm – 600 mm (0.500 in. to 23.622 in.)
design characteristics
Made of quenched steel, the performance is reliable and consistent.
After phosphate treatment, the inner and outer rings are coated with molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) to reduce friction on the contact surface.
The design of the bearing seat and shaft has been simplified, reducing installation time.
Application scenarios
Mining truck A-type frame, tipping cylinder, front and rear struts, and steering cylinder.
Equalizer rail, lifting and tilting cylinders, propulsion blades, fixed balls, and bulldozer loosening blades.
The articulated system includes upper and lower steering assist cylinders, as well as wheel loader arm and bucket cylinders.
Hydraulic excavator arm and bucket cylinder.
It can also be used for space shuttles, heavy mobile structures, and other types of motor vehicles.
