FAQ

The GLI BM series are bimetal bearings. They consist of a steel backing for high load capacity and a sintered bronze layer (CuSn8) on top, which serves as the sliding surface and has excellent anti-friction properties.

These are self-lubricating bushings but are designed to be lubricated for optimal performance and lifespan. They typically have indents or pockets on the sliding surface to retain grease. Initial lubrication upon installation is highly recommended.

Bimetal bushings like these are used in high-load, low-speed applications. Common uses include pivot points in construction equipment arms, kingpins in vehicles, hydraulic cylinder guides, and gearboxes.
