PERMAGLIDE PAW 16 P10 Plain Bearing Bush

Applications of PAW 16 P10 Plain Bearing

The PERMAGLIDE PAW 16 P10 plain bearing bush is designed for demanding industrial applications where reliable sliding performance is required under radial loads. It is widely used in machinery, automation systems, agricultural equipment, material handling devices and mechanical assemblies where traditional ball bearings are not the optimal solution.

This type of plain bearing is especially suitable for rotational and oscillating motion, low to moderate speeds, high loads and environments exposed to dust, vibration or limited lubrication. PAW series bushes are commonly applied in designs where durability and simplicity are critical.

Advantages of PERMAGLIDE Technology

The PAW 16 P10 bearing is manufactured using advanced PERMAGLIDE technology, combining a metal backing with a high-performance sliding layer. This structure provides high durability, low friction and excellent wear resistance over long service life.

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