Main-Metall International AG products

The cylindrical shape provides this kind of bearings with a high load capacity, thanks to the large lubrication film surface.

Thanks to the special shape of the bearing - generating several pressure zones - the shaft is centered by the lubrication film.

Similar to the multilobe bearing the tilting pads will center and stabilize the shaft at different points. The geometry is optimized through a wide operating range by its self-adjusting property. Our newly developed norixlager^® is a tilting pad bearing of relatively simple design with further optimizations.

Hydrodynamic, wear-free thrust bearings carry loads which act along the axis of the shaft. They can be combined with journal bearings. Depending on the application thrust bearings will be designed with fixed wedges or tilting pads.

For decades hydrodynamic Main-Metall bearing shells have been used successfully in heavy duty applications like cement kiln roller stations.

High performance self-lubricating bushings for standard applications. The solid lubricant compound is distributed to allow movement in all directions.

Versatile self-lubricating wear plates for standard applications.

Slide plates for a wide range of applications with lubrication.
