Hydro lubricated rubber bronze bearing 95 mm Caravel

Length of the bus is 380 mm

Outer diameter 115 mm

Caravel water-lubricated bearings are made from an outer shell in brass or bronze, with an inner surface covered with vulcanized NBR rubber.
Shell and rubber are carefully glued and the adhesion has been thoroughly tested in our laboratory.
Shape, dimensions and number of lubrication channels are designed according to precise mathematical and mechanical principles. The interior design of the rubber surface can be axial, spiral or spiral, with one or more right or left handed principles, depending on the axis rotation, to assist water in the lubrication and cooling of the axis.

Easy assembly and replacement
Drive Force water-lubricated bearings meet every requirement with regard to inside and outside tolerance: if necessary, they are ground externally to be quickly assembled and replaced.

Sound and vibration damping
Water-lubricated bearings are the ideal solution to limit and control vibrations and noise: such a function plays an important role on propeller shafts and industrial applications. It may happen that rotating bodies are not perfectly balanced or require extreme precision.
When the rotation of the axis about its own axis does not coincide with its geometric center, the extreme elasticity of the rubber absorbs the vibrations in a very effective way. Laboratory tests have shown that vibrations do not spread to the outer shell. The NBR rubber is ideal to prevent damage and ash.
