Ggb bearing technology is the largest manufacturer of metal-polymer plain bearings.
Fibre-reinforced plastic composite materials range of products typically consists of a filament-wound, fiberglass-impregnated, epoxy backing with a variety of low-friction wear-resistant bearing linings. The reinforced composite structure associated with gar-max®, gar-fil™, high strength gar-max®, megalife®xt and deva.Tex® enables the bearing to support high static and dynamic loads. Moreover, the inert nature of the materials makes these products ideal for corrosive environments such as seawater and acidic environments. The environmentally friendly hpm™ and hpf™ were both specifically developed for hydropower applications, have a high load capacity, excellent shock and edge loading capacity, excellent corrosion resistance, and are dimensionally stable. These products are available as bushes, plates, bearing segments and special forms depending on the particular material type.
