Our offices and warehouses will be closed for the holidays from December 23 to January 6.
Our e-commerce will remain active and orders will be processed upon reopening.
Happy Holidays!
The ball joint is a self-aligning bearing that consists of a convex inner ring (ball) and an outer ring.
ball joints are standardised, ready-to-fit mechanical components capable of allowing alignment movements in multiple directions. The inner ring has a convex spherical outer diameter, while the outer ring has a corresponding concave inner diameter.
The forces acting on the bearing can be static or occur when the bearing performs oscillatory or oscillatory - rotary movements at relatively low speeds.
It is particularly suitable for accommodating heavy radial loads and can withstand a certain amount of thrust in several directions.
There are various types of ball joint:
- Self-lubricating;
- Requiring lubrication;
- For heavy or light loads.
In our catalogue, in addition to agricultural bearings and industrial bearings, you can also find ball and socket joints.
The ball and socket joint is a radial ball joint which, depending on the type, can be relubricated or maintenance-free, with or without a 2RS dust ring.
