Simplicity Plain Linear Bearing

Simplicity Plain Linear Bearings

Plain Linear Bearings from PBC Linear®, featuring the self-lubricating FrelonGOLD® PTFE-based liner, which minimizes friction and wear, eliminates external lubrication needs, and outperforms in harsh, hot, or dirty environments. Available as stand-alone regular linear bearings with straight or crowned anodized aluminum shells (open or closed), as straight or flanged sleeve bearings, inside standard-sized or double-sized pillow blocks (open or closed), or as standard or double-sized flanged variants. Optional Frelon® J liners provide resistance to corrosive chemicals, while Frelon® W liners ensure FDA compliance. These bearings support rotary, linear, or oscillating motion, with precision or compensated running clearances. Offered in Inch, ISO Metric, or JIS Metric ID series, they deliver maintenance-free performance across a wide temperature range. The 2:1 binding rule applies.
