FAQ

Question? What is the main advantage of the POM sliding layer in this bearing?

Answer: The Polyoxymethylene (POM) layer provides a low-friction, self-lubricating surface that is highly resistant to wear and chemicals. The indented pockets on the surface act as reservoirs for grease, ensuring long-term lubrication and reducing maintenance needs.

Question? Is this bearing suitable for dry-running applications?

Answer: While the bearing can operate dry for short periods under light loads and low speeds, it is designed for lubricated applications. Initial greasing upon assembly is recommended to achieve optimal performance and maximum service life.

Question? What are the operational temperature limits for the AKN GLI POM 505530?

Answer: Bearings with a POM sliding surface typically operate effectively in a temperature range from -40 deg C to +110 deg C (continuous), with short-term peaks up to +130 deg C.
