Split-Sleeve Bearing System

The bearing system has been designed and engineered for continuous, reliable performance and easy maintenance. Sleeve-type bearings and oil rings are split to provide accessibility for visual inspection and maintenance. A void-free centrifugally cast babbitt is bonded to thick-walled bearing shell designed with spherical seating surfaces. Carefully balanced bronze oil rings and oil accumulating grooves in babbit-lined oil ring guides provide a liberal supply of lubricant to the bearing.

The bearing unit includes a four part bearing seal system designed to prevent unwanted leaks. The seal system consists of an inner and outer floating labyrinth oil seal and an inner and outer air seal. These seals work together to contain oil in the bearings while keeping dirt and contaminates out.
