Cable Carrier copes with dirty, harsh environments.

Cable Carrier copes with dirty, harsh environments.

System E4/4 Energy ChainÂ-® family has contoured side links that seal out dirt, ice, snow, and other debris, preventing binding in outdoor or gritty situations. Applications include limestone conveyor belts, stone-cutting machinery, concrete plants, and steel mill equipment. Side links create overlapping grip which increases stability of carrier so it can handle greater side loads and still...

Pillow Block Bearings are suitable for packaging industry.
Architectural & Civil Engineering Products

Pillow Block Bearings are suitable for packaging industry.

Inch-sized pillow block bearings are available in sizes from 3/16 to 1 in. ID. Their two-part construction combines polymer spherical bearing and igumid G polymer housing. Combination enables bearing to be self-lubricating and resist abrasion and corrosion. They are suitable for applications such as door hinges and clutch assemblies in automotive, agricultural, and textile industries.
