Bearings:Polygon PolyLube composite bearings and bushings are ideal for any high load, low speed application. Superior bearing capabilities make these composites the perfect choice for use in industrial and medical equipment such as hospital beds, respirator systems, lift tables, x-ray and MRI tables as well as a variety of other applications. Because PolyLube bearings are non-corrosive, they work well in waste water treatment valves, outboard motors, boat trailers, and moving parts for off- shore oil drilling rigs.
