Aerospace Bearings

Kahr Bearing is a world-class manufacturer of bearing products for various industries. Kahr Bearing specializes in the development and manufacturing of PTFE impregnated liner systems used to provide inherent bearing lubrication and prevent the need for repetitive grease application. These maintenance-free liners can be incorporated into any bearing design, improving bearing life and reducing maintenance requirements. Typical bearing product types produced by Kahr Bearing are spherical plain bearings and journals.

Aerospace Lined Bearings

Kahr Bearing specializes in providing lined cylindrical journals ensuring low friction rotational motion without requiring repetitive greasing or maintenance. Kahr Bearing can provide journals per standard industry specifications such as AS81934 or to meet each customer’s unique application-specific requirements. Kahr Bearing can help with all your aerospace, spacecraft, and aircraft-lined bearing needs. 

Typical Applications:

• Landing Gear Shock Strut Bearings
• Hatch and Door Hinge Connections
• Link Rod Connecting Ends 

Aerospace Spherical Bearings

Spherical Bearings (also known as Spherical Plain Bearings) are used as connecting points between two bodies that require multiple degrees of motion where a simple bolted connection just won’t do. They consist of a spherical ball surrounded by a cylindrical race with some kind of lubricant between them allowing freedom of movement. 

KAHR-KAPTOR SPHERICAL BEARINGS

Kahr-Kaptor spherical Bearings are self-lubricating, low-friction bearings incorporating a threaded retainer ring for installation and replacement where accessibility for staking or high thrust loads prevent traditional bearing retention methods. 

Aerospace Standard Bearings

Standard Spherical Plain Bearings are utilized across many industries to provide mounting and motion. Kahr Bearing specializes in providing world-class spherical plain bearings that meet and exceed our customer requirements. Various options such as staking grooves, high misalignment, and wide race varieties are available to meet each customer's requirements. Call today for questions on aerospace, aircraft, and spacecraft standard bearings. 

Aerospace Rod Ends

Kahr Bearing offers standard, specialty, and custom-designed plain rod end bearings to a variety of markets including aerospace, industrial and space. These bearing assemblies typically incorporate a spherical bearing swaged into the rod end body. Rod end bearings are available with unique design features such as anti-rotation lugs, high misalignment bearings, internal or external threads, and keyway slots. Lined rod end bearings reduce preventative maintenance by removing the need for repetitive grease application.

Aerospace, rotorcraft, and spacecraft Rod Ends are typically installed in the following applications:

• Actuators
• Turnbuckles
• Link Rods
