• Duramax® bearings possess inherent vibration-dampening qualities and are non-polluting
• External brass shells are machined and polished to provide easy fitting
• Specially formulated oil and chemical resistant nitrile rubber is securely bonded to the shell
• Units with thin shells are available for the struts of small craft
• Sleeve bearings are usually installed by light press-fitting and locked in place with cone-pointed set screws
