Resin bearings with excellent resistance to electric shock, corrosion, and wear [can be used in seawater] N
BAKES
A bearing that is resistant to electrical and corrosion damage, prevents lubrication deterioration, and is gentle on shafts. It has excellent wear resistance and stable sliding characteristics, allowing for a long lifespan of the bearing even in seawater environments.
This is a composite bearing made of a special resin that is resistant to corrosion and less prone to galvanic corrosion. It has been adopted by manufacturers of seawater circulation pumps and shipbuilders for rudder bearing applications. **Features** 〇 Galvanic Corrosion Resistance Unlike metal bearings, it is less prone to galvanic corrosion and prevents rust and corrosion of the mating shaft. 〇 Long Lifespan It is resistant to wear and has stable sliding characteristics, reducing the frequency of bearing replacements. 〇 Soft Surface Hardness It has a soft surface hardness that does not cause wear or damage even with soft metal shafts. 〇 Lubrication It has self-lubricating properties and can be used without lubricating oil or grease. *There are stable materials available even under intermittent water conditions.* 〇 Low Water Absorption and Swelling It has lower water absorption and swelling compared to general resins, making it less likely to cling to the shaft. 〇 Freedom of Shape Custom designs are available for various sizes and shapes, including split and spherical shapes. We have received inquiries for applications in offshore wind power generation and movable breakwater applications. It can be used as a substitute for bronze and white metal. If you are facing issues with seawater environments, wear, rust, corrosion, or galvanic corrosion, please feel free to contact us. **Design Consultation** Custom Design: We accommodate various sizes and shapes. Design Proposal: We suggest groove and hole designs according to the application. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

basic information
Our company is a specialist in tribology technology (friction and wear technology). With over 80 years of technical know-how, we have numerous achievements in bearings and liners in high-load environments. This composite bearing is made from a base of thermosetting resins, specifically phenolic and epoxy resins, uniquely blended with substrates and fillers to create FRP materials that are specialized for resistance to electrolysis and corrosion. By using a soft material that does not attack the contact surface of the bearing on the shaft, even with soft metal shafts, we achieve low aggressiveness, which extends the lifespan of the shaft. Additionally, as a self-lubricating material, it exhibits low friction sliding characteristics, excels in wear resistance, and reduces the frequency of bearing replacements.
