A Sleeve Bearing, sometimes called journal bearings or plain bearings, facilitates motion between two components. They are appropriate for a variety of heavy-duty applications because of their high load capacity. Sleeve Bearings are made of materials that give high bearing strength.Attributes:• Hardened to give high wear and tear resistance• Can handle radial load and thrust loads.Applications:A Sleeve Bearing is used in the Tank and Valve to reduce the friction between the moving parts.
