Simplicity® Plain Linear Bearing variants, including standalone bearings, sleeve bushings, flange mounts and pillow blocks, featuring the self-lubricating FrelonGOLD® PTFE-based liner, which minimizes friction and wear, eliminates external lubrication needs, and outperforms in harsh, hot, or dirty environments. The stand-alone variants have straight or crowned anodized aluminum shells (open or closed), or you can choose from straight or flanged sleeve bearings, or choose bearings inside standard-sized or double-sized pillow blocks (open or closed), or inside standard or double-sized aluminum flanged mounts. Optional Frelon® J liners provide resistance to corrosive chemicals, while Frelon® W liners ensure FDA compliance. All variants support rotary, linear, or oscillating motion, with precision or compensated running clearances.
