FIT Bearings - Mast Guide Bearings

Mast guide bearings are designed for heavy load carrying capacities in forklift applications. Heavy radial and thrust loads are experienced in the mast of a forklift. Mast guide bearings have heavy section outer rings, which act as rollers and guides for the carriage in the mast channels. This is designed to fit the contour of the mast channel, and helps to prevent misalignment. It also facilitates lifting and lowering of the mast. All mast guide bearings are lubricated and sealed to prevent contamination from getting into the roller elements and raceways.
