For designers who require smooth running shafts, Spyraflo Self-Clinching/Self-Aligning bearings offer a new dimension in design, manufacturing, assembly and performance of price sensitive products. The ability to securely mount a plastic bearing in material as thin as 0.04" (1MM) together with a ±5° Self-Aligning capability offers major cost saving benefits. Manufactured from an Acetal Polymer resin having the characteristic of no "Stick Slip," where the coefficient of friction is equal or less than its coefficient of dynamic friction. The Acetal material is self-lubricating and can be used in applications where the presence of oil would be a problem. It is available with a Teflon additive (AF), giving it a considerably lower coefficient of friction. AF performance has approximately twice the speed of the comparable Delrin product. Available Plastic Bearing mounting combinations include: • Self-Clinch/Self-Align • Press-Fit/Self-Align • Flange-Mount/Self-Align
