Metric Bearing Inserts 13 Series
Metric 13 Series self‑lube bearing inserts provide a strong, durable and low‑maintenance solution for supporting rotating shafts in industrial, agricultural and general engineering machinery. Unlike the 10 and 12 Series, which use a spherical outer diameter for self‑alignment, the 13 Series features a parallel outer diameter, designed for housings that require a straight‑bore insert. This provides a firm, stable seating surface and consistent performance where spherical alignment is not required.
A key characteristic of the 13 Series is the flat‑back design, which offers a solid mounting face and improved load distribution within the housing. The inserts are available with both grub‑screw locking and eccentric‑collar locking, giving flexibility for different installation preferences and operating conditions. All units are sealed and pre‑greased for life, providing long service life with minimal maintenance.
Transpower Drives stocks the full range of metric 13 Series bearing inserts from our Wellingborough facility, supplying local engineering businesses and UK‑wide customers with fast delivery and technical support.
