What Are Plain Bearings & Bushings

A plain bearing is a cylindrical component used to carry loads while supporting the movement of two or more contacting surfaces. A plain bushing, on the other hand, is thin tube or sleeve designed to reduce friction between rotating or sliding shafts and stationary support members, which can improve efficiency while decreasing vibration and noise.

Integrating plain bearings and bushings into an application can prove to be incredibly advantageous. Characteristics of these components include: 

  • Lightweight
  • Affordable
  • Requires Less Space
  • Reduces Vibration
  • Lessens Noise 
  • Simple Installation
  • Permit High Rotational Speeds
  • Greater Shock Resistance
