GE20ES Radial Spherical Plain Bearing
The GE20ES is a popular steel-on-steel radial spherical plain bearing designed to handle heavy radial loads and moderate axial loads. It features a convex inner ring and concave outer ring, allowing ±15° angular misalignment to compensate for shaft offset and installation errors.
Key Advantages
- ✅ High load capacity: Static radial load up to 112 kN, dynamic radial load up to 56 kN.
- ✅ Misalignment tolerance: Compensates parallel/angular shaft offset without binding.
- ✅ Durable & low friction: Hardened bearing steel with MoS2 lubrication, wear-resistant and long service life.
- ✅ Easy installation: Split outer ring for simple mounting and dismounting.
Applications
Widely used in:
- Hydraulic cylinders, excavator booms, crane linkages
- Construction machinery, agricultural equipment, vehicle suspensions
- Industrial robots, automation linkages, general machinery joints
