Teflon composite bearings provide smooth, quiet, linear, rotary and/or oscillating motion

Low-cost, self-lubricating Minuteman™ Series Teflon® composite bearings from LM76 are ideal for applications that involve, linear, rotary, and/or oscillating motion.

Low-cost, self-lubricating Minuteman™ Series Teflon® composite bearings from LM76 are ideal for applications that involve, linear, rotary, and/or oscillating motion.

The self-aligning Minuteman series composite bearings can handle 10 times the load, has a very low coefficient of friction, dampens vibrations, tolerates shock, and are lower in cost than conventional linear ball bearings.

The composite bearings can be submerged, washed down with water, high-pressure steam or chemicals, and can operate in harsh abrasive contaminated environments. According to the company, additional features include: 

• Closed or open style.
• 12 sizes from ¼” ID (.2505 in.) up to 4” ID (4.0012 in.).
• Availability of pillow blocks, flange blocks, and shafting from the company. 
• 100 percent contact with the shaft so there is no place for contaminates to collect and will not score aluminum shafting.
• Availability of bearing options including self-lubricating FDA & USDA compliant Teflon® composite bearings in a 304 stainless steel shell, and lower cost bearings with a ceramic coated shell and FDA & USDA compliant liner.  Availability of all bearings in closed and open configurations, and drop-in replacements for all inch-sized linear ball bearings.
• Availability of shafting options including: Solid and hollow class L 304 stainless steel, and ceramic coated aluminum shafts in lengths to 12 feet. 
• FDA & USDA compliant shafting featuring excellent corrosion and chemical resistance, custom machining to print, pre-drilling and assembly.
