SANKYO OILLESS
When they can replace bearings
SANKYO bushings, including self-aligning spherical variants (e.g. SOBS), can replace roller or spherical bearings in applications with:
- low speeds or oscillating motion
- high loads and shocks
- angular misalignments
- dirty environments or where lubrication is not possible
- high temperatures

In slow oscillating movements,spherical bearings can suffer from insufficient lubrication. SANKYO bushings eliminate this risk through sliding contact and self-lubricating graphite. SANKYO bearing bushings are not just a "cheaper bearing", but a different technical solution, designed for applications where a solid product is desired, emphasis is placed on simplicity, and the lack of maintenance is essential. In many cases, they can successfully replace a roller bearing, with clear long-term benefits.
