Top 3 Reasons to Use Plastic Bearings

    While metal bearings and bushings are widely used in many industries, there are specific applications where plastic bearings and bushings offer significant advantages. These versatile components come in a variety of shapes and styles, making them suitable for a wide range of uses. Plastic bearings provide an affordable, low-maintenance, and highly customizable solution that can be tailored to meet the unique needs of different applications. Their flexibility makes them ideal for manufacturers who have specific design requirements or want to optimize performance in specialized environments. plastic-bearings-500x76 One of the key benefits of plastic bearings is their resistance to dirt, dust, and chemicals, which reduces the need for frequent maintenance. They also resist corrosion and don’t require lubrication, making them ideal for use in harsh or hard-to-reach environments. This durability translates into long-term cost savings, as plastic bearings often outlast their metal counterparts and reduce the frequency of replacements. Customizability is another major advantage of plastic bearings. Since plastic is a flexible and cost-effective material, it's easier and more economical to produce custom designs compared to other materials. Many of our clients choose plastic bearings because they allow for greater design freedom, enabling components to be made with the equipment in mind rather than the other way around. The versatility of plastic bearings makes them suitable for a broad range of industries and applications, including: - Bottling systems - Conveyor belts - Fillers and dispensers - Food processing equipment - Hoppers and chutes - Mixers and agitators - Packaging machinery - Industrial product lines - Environments with exposure to chemicals or saltwater - Single-machine setups - Wash-down areas Low maintenance is another standout feature of plastic bearings. They are self-lubricating, eliminating the need for costly lubricants and reducing the frequency of servicing. Additionally, their low coefficient of friction ensures smooth operation over time, making them a reliable "fit-and-forget" solution. In terms of cost, plastic bearings can save up to 40% compared to traditional metal bearings. Their wear resistance and long service life mean fewer replacements and lower maintenance costs. Plus, they can be paired with less expensive shafts, further reducing project expenses.
