Oilless bearing
oilless bearing that does not require oil; especially : one in which a lubricant (as powdered graphite) is
incorporated in the material of which the bearing is made. What is the Oilless Bearing?
A bearing that can improve productivity and save cost/time by having the material properties with can withstand both high & low temperature, corrosive environment, foreign particles, and impact load.
There are various kind of shapes and materials for oilless bearings such as metal, non-metal, plastic and ceramic.
