Sliding Type Bearings

Sliding Bearings are playing a big and active role in structures. Sliding Bearings with PTFE plates are used in structures where less verrtical but more horizontal weight is required.

For all the sliding bearings with PTFE  plates; steel plates must be used that will not harm the sliding. Generally you may see this kind of bearings in buildings, shopping malls and  bridges.

The horizontal weight  never impacts these type of bearings. The horizontal weight is directly transferred into  the oil rooms that takes place  on PTFE materials with silicone oil, that can protect it’s own integrity and also decrease the friction with stainless plate.
