PRODUCT OVERVIEW SELF-LUBRICATING BEARINGS Fiberglide®/Fabroid® bearings offer 18 distinct advantages over conventional lubricated bearings: 1. Design freedom—Fiberglide®/Fabroid® bearings can be incorporated into internal component assemblies inaccessible to conventional lubrication technique, eliminating costly maintenance tear down. 2. Maintenance free—The self-lubricating nature of Fiberglide®/Fabroid® makes it an ideal selection for equipment providing service to remote environments such as oil and gas transmission lines and pumping stations. 3. Operation without lubrication while...

Fiberglide® split seam steel journal bearings are designed to meet or exceed industry standards for self-lubricating bushings. They provide all of the advantages of Fiberglide® at minimum cost. Carbon steel is normally used as a backing material, with the external surfaces plated to resist corrosion. Other metals can be supplied upon special order. Typical applications include aerial work platform automotive vehicles, farm equipment, construction and material handling equipment. Fabroid® can also be supplied for special applications — consult Transport Dynamics engineering department. For...

Woven PTFE Fabric *Recommended housing bores are for steel housings. Contact engineering for recommended housing dimensions for alternate materials. STANDARD INCH SERIES Part number example: CJS1216 is a split seam steel Fiberglide® journal bearing with a .750 in. bore, 1.000 in. long. Special and larger sizes can be supplied upon special order.

Liner FIBERGLIDE® Split Woven PTFE Fabric *Recommended housing bores are for steel housings. Contact engineering for recommended housing dimensions for alternate materials. STANDARD METRIC SERIES Part number example: CJM1012 is a split seam steel Fiberglide® / journal bearing with a 10mm bore, 12mm long. Larger diameters can be supplied.

The constant wall thickness of .062 of the CJT SERIES makes them dimensionally interchangeable with other types of steel bearings commonly used. They provide all the advantages of Fiberglide® at minimum cost. Carbon steel is normally used as a backing material, with the external surfaces plated to resist corrosion. Other metals can be supplied upon special order. Typical applications include automotive vehicles, farm equipment, construction and material handling equipment. A Fabroid® Liner can also be supplied for special applications — consult Transport Dynamics engineering department. For...

Series CJT *Recommended housing bores are for steel housings. Contact engineering for recommended housing dimensions for alternate materials. Part number example: CJT2024 is a split seam Fiberglide® / journal bearing with 1.25 in. bore, 1.50 in. long. Larger diameters can be supplied.

Replaces Bronze Bushings *Recommended housing bores are for steel housings. Contact engineering for recommended housing dimensions for alternate materials. B E A R I N G S The constant wall thickness of 1/8 in. (.125) for the CJH series makes them dimensionally interchangeable with many bronze and filament wound bushings. Carbon steel is used as a backing material, with the external surfaces plated to resist corrosion. Typical applications include farm equipment, construction and material handling equipment. Fabroid® can also be supplied for special applications. Consult Transport Dynamics...

*Recommended housing bores are for steel housings. Contact engineering for recommended housing dimensions for alternate materials. The Fiberglide® Liner Type bearing provides high load capacity and low friction in the form of a thin-walled sleeve for use in butterfly valves, trunnion bearings, ball and plug valve stem bushings, hydraulic and pneumatic cylinder bushings, food handling machinery, and door hinge bushings, among others. Because these bearings are completely non-metallic-fabricated of woven PTFE fibers on the bore supported by a laminated backing-there is no possibility of...
