Kamatics Bearings are Made with KAron™ Self-Lubricating Liners, Available in a Range of Varieties
Our liners deliver better performance than other self-lubricating materials because they don’t have continuous interconnecting fibers or weave that can provide a moisture path to the bonding substrate. A moisture path can promote corrosion under the liner or significant liner swelling when used in a moisture-laden environment.
