Sliding Bearings from GGB

Our supplier, GGB (previously known as Glacier Garlock Bearings), offers an extensive product range of straight bushings, flange bushings, thrust washers, sliding materials and special products in a great number of materials. The sliding layer may consist of PTFE or other polymers, with metal backing or sliding material throughout.

GGB bearings offer exceptional performance over a wide range of load, speed and temperature conditions. The self-lubricating materials are resistant to wear, chemicals, cavitation, flow erosion and fatigue, making them ideal for a wide range of applications and industries.

Reduce downtime and improve equipment performance!

LOW FRICTION AND HIGH WEAR RESISTANCE
Low coefficients of friction eliminate the need for lubrication while reducing wear and extending service life.

MAINTENANCE-FREE
Ideal for applications requiring long bearing life without continuous maintenance or operating conditions with little or no lubrication.

LOWER SYSTEM COST
Reduce shaft costs by eliminating the need for hardening and machining grease paths. Compact, one-piece construction provides space and weight savings and simplifies assembly.

ENVIRONMENTAL
Greaseless, lead-free bearings comply with increasingly stringent environmental regulations such as the RoHS directive for electrical and electronic equipment.

Advanced Hybrid- and All-Ceramic Rolling Bearing Solutions

Where conventional steel roller bearings do not perform satisfactorily, due to:

- Extreme loads,speeds and/or acceleration
- Poor or no lubrication, due to:
- Media exposure (water, mud, process fluids)
- High temperatures    
- Cryogenic temperatures
- Lubrication difficult for other reasons
- Very corrosive environment
- Abrasives
- Requirement for ultra-low friction
- Requirement for long lifetime
