- Suitable for a variety of requirements whether as an upright, pivot or flange bearing
Spherical plain bearings are available in two size options - 0.19 - 1.0 inch and 2 - 30 mm. 
They are suitable for high axial and radial loads if splitting components is required or to adjust misalignment.
Spherical roller thrust bearings are ideal when you need a lightweight component, if corrosion resistance is requested or if you require a spherical roller bearing that has a good coefficient of friction.
They are self-aligning, have good wear properties and are suitable for diameters ranging from 5 to 20mm.
Spherical roller thrust bearings help with misalignment errors, prevent edge loads and the housing pad is impact resistant.
