GGB HPM™ Filament Wound Self Lubricating Hydropower Bearings 02 HPM

HPM,Ñ¢ Filament Wound Self Lubricating Hydropower Bearings from GGB are designed specifically for hydropower applications, offering high load capacity and excellent shock and edge loading capabilities. These bearings exhibit low friction, resulting in superior wear rates and extended bearing life. They are dimensionally stable with very low water absorption and low swelling, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments. The bearings also demonstrate excellent corrosion resistance, making them suitable for various industrial applications, including servo-motor bearings and wicket gate bearings. The maximum static load capacity is 30,000 psi, with a dynamic load capacity of 20,000 psi. Operating temperatures range from -320¬8F to 320¬8F, and they can handle maximum sliding speeds of 25 fpm. The coefficient of friction varies between 0.03 and 0.12, depending on operating conditions.
