PERMAGLIDE PAW 10 P180 Plain Bearing Bush

Applications of PAW 10 P180 Plain Bearing

The PERMAGLIDE PAW 10 P180 plain bearing bush is designed for demanding industrial applications where reliable sliding motion is required under high loads and low to moderate speeds. This type of plain bearing is commonly used in machinery, automation systems, agricultural equipment, material handling devices and mechanical assemblies where rolling bearings are not the optimal solution.

PAW series bushes are especially suitable for oscillating and rotational movements, applications with limited lubrication possibilities, and environments exposed to dust, vibration or variable loads.

Advantages of PERMAGLIDE Plain Bearings

The PAW 10 P180 bush is manufactured using PERMAGLIDE technology, combining a metal backing with a high-performance sliding layer. This construction ensures high durability, low friction and excellent wear resistance over long operating periods.

Thanks to its self-lubricating properties, the bearing can operate with minimal or no lubrication, significantly reducing maintenance costs. Compared to ball bearings or complete bearing units, PERMAGLIDE plain bearings offer a compact, robust and cost-effective solution for industrial designs.
