Answer These bearings are self-lubricating, making them maintenance-free. The composite structure provides high load capacity from the steel back, good heat dissipation from the bronze layer, and extremely low friction from the PTFE sliding surface. They are ideal for applications where lubrication is difficult or undesirable. Question? Can this GLI BNF 101212 bearing be used in wet or corrosive environments? Answer While the PTFE sliding surface is highly resistant to chemicals, the steel backing is susceptible to corrosion. For applications with significant moisture or corrosive agents, a stainless steel or all-bronze bearing might be a more suitable choice. A light oil or grease coating can provide some protection for the outer surfaces. Question? What are the recommended tolerances for the shaft and housing for this 10mm bearing? Answer For optimal performance, the shaft tolerance should typically be h6-h8, and the housing tolerance should be H7. This ensures the correct press-fit and running clearance. Always consult the manufacturer’s datasheet for specific application requirements and load calculations. profideals is not an authorized distributor, reseller or representative of the products featured on this website.
