NORGLIDE® Aluminum Bearings
NORGLIDE® maintenance free aluminum bearings are made from a composite material of compounded PTFE tape on an aluminum substrate. This combination is ideal to match with cast magnesium or aluminum housings. The PTFE layer is sizable and compressible and can help reduce inside diameter tolerances. This combination provides extreme light weight bearings with a low coefficient of friction, to minimize "stick slip" and provide optimal feel.

NORGLIDE® maintenance free aluminum bearings feature:

Sizable liner for optimal fit

Maintenance-free, self lubrication

Corrosion resistant for extreme environments and climates

Low coefficient of friction

Available in custom sizes and shapes to fit specific applications

Multiple proprietary formulations of material eliminates noise and squeaks
