Why MAXAM® Bearings Are Superior
Compared to traditional spherical bearings, MAXAM® products hold several key advantages that typically make them superior:
High Hardness Outer Shell
MAXAM® products utilize an extremely hard outer shell without changing the base metal of the bearing. This ensures maximum strength and durability, allowing the bearing to withstand heavy loads without suffering from deformation or wear.
Lubrication Flexibility
MAXAM® bearings also have great lubrication qualities that make them suitable for a variety of applications. They can operate with little or no lubricant, for one, plus actually create their own lubrication by pulverizing application debris – creating a solution that, when combined with water, grease or oil, becomes a slurry that offers lubrication.
No Rusting or Corrosion
MAXAM® bearings do not rust or corrode. This means that they can be used in applications where there is constant exposure to harsh chemicals or extreme weather conditions without the worry of deterioration.
Resistant to High Temperatures
In addition to their corrosion-resistant qualities, MAXAM® bearings have a high tolerance for heat. They can withstand temperatures up to 1000F continuous and 1200F intermittent, making them suitable for use in high-temperature applications such as industrial ovens and furnaces.
Spalling and Fracture Resistance
Even under the heaviest shock or impact loads, MAXAM® spherical bearings will not crack or spall. This makes them ideal for use in heavy machinery and equipment, where durability is of utmost importance.
Load Carrying Capacity
MAXAM® SR bearings tolerate a greater degree of angular misalignment than traditional bearings, plus can handle higher axial float. This provides greater load carrying capacity, which is crucial in heavy-duty applications.
Qualities of the MAXAM® Two Piece Spherical Bearing
MAXAM® two-piece spherical bearings are the standard design, engineered to directly retrofit standard single and double row spherical roller bearings. It’s ideal for heavy, lower-speed “fixed” loads where the bearing is stationary. In addition to its load carrying capacity, MAXAM® SR bearings also boast a longer lifespan and reduced maintenance needs compared to traditional bearings.
