CJ Composite Bearings for Extended Heavy-Duty Operation
CJ Composite bearings excel where long wear and low maintenance matter most - in agriculture, automotive, construction, marine, railroad and material handling equipment. With a high load capacity similar to bronze, powdered metal and steel, CJ bearings can extend the operating life of your machinery, without the added expense of regular lubrication. They are available in standard sizes, and are an ideal drop-in replacement option.

CJ Bearing Application Highlights
Learn about CJ Composite Bearings in marine environments:
- Bow thrusters
- Boatlifts and davits
High-load capacity/high-shock load capability
Accommodates incredible compression loads that literally crush competing composite materials.
Self-lubricating design
Provides maintenance-free operation and eliminates the need for costly and messy greasing systems.
Low coefficient of friction
Reduces wear and extends operating life. Coefficients as low as 0.05 in dry applications and <0.009 in lubricated environments.
Temperature resistant
Operates flawlessly in temperatures ranging from cryogenic levels to a high of 300°F (149°C). (Call for higher temperature availability).
Dimensionally stable in fluids (water, corrosive liquids, and chemical solutions)
Absorption rates are negligible, providing near-zero swell
Chemical resistant
Compatible with a wide range of lubricants and media
Flexible material design
Suitable for press fit, freeze fit, epoxy bonding, as well as conventional mechanical retention.
Low weight/high strength
Accommodates high-load with a compact strength to weight ratio
Thick-wall availability
