Spherical Plain Bearingsis a special slide bearing, and it can bear
heavy load in many direction.
Rod End is a kind of special structure of sliding bearings. Its
structure than rolling bearing simple, its main is by a spherical
outside of the inner ring and outer ring inside the ball with a
composed, can bear larger load, according to its different type and
structure, can bear radial load, axial load or radial, axial and
existing joint load. Rod End are generally used to speed the lower
swing motion (namely Angle motion), with the sliding surface, also
can be for spherical shape within the scope of certain Angle for
tilt movement (i. e. Self-aligning movement), in the axis and shaft
shell holes concentricity bigger when, still can work normally.
