Plastic Housing Series Bearing Units

Plastic Housing Series Bearing Units

Plastic Housing Series Bearing Units features stainless bearings and glass fiber reinforced plastic housing. The Plastic Housing Series Bearing Units ensures a clean operating environment.

Bearing units in the plastic series feature ball bearings inserted into housings made of plastics that provide superior resistance to corrosion as compared to standard series cast iron units. This series is especially useful in a wide variety of applications because of the nonmagnetic and rust free properties of the housing.

The solid grease lubricant in the ball bearing, reduces leakage from the bearing, significantly reducing environmental pollution. Also, the housing will not stain, nor is there paint to peel and contaminate the environment.

The standard solid grease type for these ball bearing units is spot-pack which places the lubricant on the bearing cage. Torque consumption capabilities of spot-pack bearings is low due to reduced whip resistance in comparison to standard grease lubricated ball bearings.

Weight is reduced more than 30% to 60% over standard series units. The glass filled polyester housing not only reduces corrosion but offers better water resistance.
