💡 What is a spherical bushing used for in industrial linear slide unit and pillow block setups? A spherical bushing provides a low-friction, self-aligning plain bearing surface for misaligned shafts in heavy machinery. - Ideal for supporting radial loads in conveyor drives, gearboxes, and linear slide unit mounts. - Can complement sealed ball bearing or ceramic components, or serve as a handy metal-on-metal solution. - Offers high dynamic/static load capacity and high temperature tolerance (up to 180°C) for industrial use.
