A Straight Sleeve Bearing, sometimes called bushings, journal bearings, or plain bearings, facilitates motion between two components. They are appropriate for a variety of heavy-duty applications because of their high load capacity. Sleeve bearings are made of metal, plastic, or fiber-reinforced composite sleeves.
 
Attributes:
 • Manufactured to precise specifications and are built for durability, reliability, and productivity.
 • Greatly reduce noise at low speeds.
 • Handle the radial load and thrust loads.
 • Offers lower overall cost, outstanding strength and fatigue life, and superior resistance to abrasive wear.

Applications:
A Straight Sleeve Bearing is used to reduce the friction between the moving parts and is used in various systems like Bucket Links and various Hoe Sticks.
