JEM insert bearings are a quick and easy 1:1 replacement for metal bearings

Directly replace your existing metal insert bearings with igubal® JEM — no redesign necessary. This plastic spherical insert bearing drops straight into your standard housings, so you can upgrade your assembly without re-engineering it. Engineered from high-performance polymers embedded with solid lubricants, these spherical bearings last 8 times longer than their metal counterparts, which means fewer replacements and lower operating costs. Because the bearing insert is grease-free, dry-running and maintenance-free, you can eliminate relubrication schedules and prevent the unplanned downtime that stalls production — an advantage that stands out in dirty environments, where grease only attracts contamination. The self-aligning design also compensates for shaft misalignment, while the corrosion-resistant polymer construction runs quietly and holds up in conditions where a metal insert bearing would seize or rust.
