Metal Bearings
FEROGLIDE™ is a self lubricating bearing material applied to a rigid metal backing. FEROGLIDE bearings can withstand extremely high loads and temperatures, they are recommended for applications where low surface speeds are combined with high loads, for example in the Hydro Industry, Valve industry and General Mechanical Applications.
FEROGLIDE
FEROGLIDE material is manufactured at Tenmat and supplied as plain journal bearings, flanged bearings, thrust washers, glide-plates and glide- bars, foil and used to line special bearings according to customer specifications. For full details, please see our Standard Size Section.
The bearings are completely self lubricating and normally run dry; however they can also be used where lubrication or other fluids are present. Please view our Technical Manual for further technical information and data.
FEROGLIDE bearings show good dimensional stability, excellent wear and abrasion resistance, and good resistance to extreme temperatures. The material is also user friendly and easy to install (Assembly Instruction).
FEROGLIDE bearings are available with many backup materials in a wide variety of standard configurations.
