Resin bearings with excellent resistance to electrical insulation, corrosion, and wear [can be used in seawater].
BAKES
A bearing that is resistant to electrical and corrosion damage, prevents lubrication degradation, 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 does not corrode and is less prone to electrolysis. It has been adopted by seawater circulation pump manufacturers and shipbuilders for rudder bearing applications. <Features> 〇 Electrolysis Resistance Unlike metal bearings, it is less prone to electrolysis and prevents rust and corrosion of the opposing 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 materials that remain stable 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 Customizable to various sizes and shapes, including split and spherical shapes. We have received inquiries for applications in offshore wind power generation and movable breakwater uses. It can be used as a substitute for bronze and white metal. If you are facing issues with seawater environments, wear, rust, corrosion, or electrolysis, please feel free to contact us. <Design Consultation> Custom Design: Tailored to various sizes and shapes. Design Proposal: Suggestions for groove and hole designs based on 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 a substrate and filler to create FRP materials specifically resistant to electrolysis and corrosion. By using a soft material that does not attack even soft metal shafts for the bearing contact surface, 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.
