Plain Bearings


Precise Plain Bearing & Housing

A plain bearing, also known as a bush bearing, is a mechanical component that operates on the principle of sliding friction without any rolling elements. It is particularly suited for high-load, low-speed applications where smooth movement and reliable performance are required. For example, plain bearings are found in railways, mining equipment, construction machinery and solar power systems. They can be used for both rotational and linear applications, such as a shaft rotating in a hole or a sliding drawer. These nifty components are cost-effective and dependable solutions available in various forms, from spherical plain bearings to plain ball bearings. At ReFast, we offer top-quality plain bearings designed to handle the toughest tasks with ease, ensuring your equipment runs smoothly and efficiently.

Quality—Plain & Simple

At ReFast, our plain bearings are created with precision and durability in mind, ensuring optimal performance and longevity for your machinery and equipment. Not only this, but we make sure to offer a range of plain bearings, including those with bushing or housing elements. Outside of plain bearings, we also boast a huge selection of other bearings, including ball bearings, roller bearings and insert bearings and housings. If you’re curious about ball bearings, these are simply bearings that use small, spherical balls to enable rotation. Similarly, roller bearings utilise spherical, cylindrical or tapered rollers to achieve a smooth rotation. At ReFast, we also offer a variety of handy bearing accessories, including shaft collars, bearing nuts and circlips. Having a comprehensive catalogue means we can help workplaces and consumers find the perfect solution for their needs, no matter how complicated.
