What is a WMUB flanged bearing?

A WMUB flanged bearing is a wrapped plain bearing with a bronze backing and PTFE lining, designed to provide reliable low-friction performance in dry-running applications. WMUB bearings are particularly useful where a flange is required to provide axial positioning or support.

When should I use a flanged bearing over a plain bearing?

A flanged bearing is useful when the bearing needs to provide both radial support and axial positioning within an assembly. WMUB flanged bearings can help simplify component design where space, alignment, or axial movement needs to be controlled.

What is POM composite lining?

POM (polyoxymethylene) is an engineering thermoplastic known for its low friction, wear resistance, and dimensional stability. A POM composite flanged bushing can provide reliable performance in applications where reduced friction and wear are important, particularly under dry-running conditions.

What sizes are available for WMUB bearings?

WMUB bearings are available in standard metric and inch sizes to suit a variety of industrial applications. Customized dimensions can also be produced through our in-house machining capabilities to meet specific customer requirements.
