New family of Misumi self-lubricating linear bushings

Offered in assorted styles, with straight or mini-flanged versions available, these new bushings are claimed to achieve three times the rated life span of conventional bushings.

An integral fibre pad delivers lubricant to the shaft surface through capillary action, thereby maintaining a constant lubricating film between the ball bearings and the shaft for excellent low-friction, low-wear performance.

Misumi's self-lubricating linear bushings are also preloaded with a lithium soap-based grease to ensure that installation is quick and easy.

These bearings, and thousands of other standard machine components for factory automation, are detailed in Misumi's vast free catalogue that can be ordered online.
