PLAIN BEARINGS
HAWC Bearings offers an unparalleled range of plain bearings for all applications across all industries. Whether you are working on a large, complex project that requires many bearings of different sizes or a smaller project with standard size bearings we have the right solution for you. Technical advice is available for all of your plain bearing requirements.
Plain or solid bearings are the least expensive type of bearing.
They comprise of a bearing surface with no rolling element and are lightweight, compact and have a high load capacity, which can be used in a wide range of applications. Our extensive range of plain bearings includes dry, lubricated, parallel and flanged. They have a very good wear and friction performance over a wide range of loads, speeds and temperature conditions. Suitable applications can include: lifting equipment, hydraulic pumps and motors, pneumatic equipment, medical and scientific equipment, textile machinery and agricultural machinery and equipment.
HU PTFE wrapped bush
Our HU range of PTFE wrapped self-lubricating bearings are suitable for dry running, low friction, low wear applications.
​
HX ACETAL wrapped bush
Our HX range of wrapped ACETAL bearings are suitable for rotary and oscillating movement applications.
​
DEVA Bushes
Deva. metal® is a self-lubricating bearing material manufactured by advanced powder metallurgy. It is fully compacted, unlike oil-impregnated porous bronze materials that are weak by comparison.
​
HA Bronze Bearings
Our HA range of dry running self-lubricating bushes eliminates the use of oil or grease by using solid graphite pegs embedded into the bearing surface which will lubricate the bearing for life.
​
HA Bronze bearings with solid PTFE lubrication
Our HA range of dry running self-lubricating bushes eliminates the use of oil or grease by using solid PTFE pegs embedded into the bearing surface which will lubricate the bearing for life.
​
HB Bronze wrapped bearings
Our range of HB bronze bearings manufactured from a rolled phosphor bronze alloy material are extremely versatile and well suited for a wide range of applications.
