Rulon Plane Bearings

Cost-Effective Performance and Reliability

Rulon bearings outperform metal materials, and are ideal for non-lubricated, high-load applications in punishing environments.  Rulon bearings are heavy-duty, rust-resistant, long-wearing, and cost-efficient.  Rulon is the preferred material in many applications

When your application calls for Rulon  – you should call TriStar. With the largest US inventory and multiple distribution centers, we have what you need, when you need it.  Our Rulon Bearing Selector Guide, will help you match the right composite bearing material to the job. 

Or visit our interactive Plane Bearing Design Worksheet.  In just seven easy steps, you can submit your plane bearing specifications to our engineering team for immediate help with your selection.

When you partner with TriStar, you have access to our team of experts – including mechanical and chemical engineers, chemists, and polymer scientists, all with vast experience in the practical application of plastic materials.
