Solid-Lubricating Bearings: Key Features

Solid-lubricating bearings are designed with embedded lubricants (such as graphite, PTFE, or molybdenum disulfide) within their structure, eliminating the need for external lubrication. Key benefits include:

Maintenance-free operation – No need for frequent oil or grease replenishment.
High load capacity – Suitable for heavy-duty applications.
Corrosion and dust resistance – Ideal for harsh environments.
Extended lifespan – Reduced wear due to embedded lubrication.

Common Applications:
Aerospace components
Food processing machinery
Automotive suspensions
High-temperature industrial equipment
