Overview

SLB Self-Lubricating Spherical Bearings Product Overview

SLB24H is a load-slot spherical plain bearing with a 1.5000″ bore (B) and 2.7500″ OD (D). Body width (W) = 1.375″, inner race width (T) = 1.094″. Ball diameter = 2.312″. Flat OD (O) = 1.860″. Approximate weight: 1.358 lb.

Rated at 135,950 lb static radial load with ±8.5° misalignment angle. The 52100 bearing steel ball is precision ground, heat treated, and hard chrome plated. The alloy steel race is heat treated and oil coated, with a reinforced nylon race and PTFE liner for self-lubricating operation. The load-slot design allows the ball and race to be assembled from the side, simplifying installation in confined or fixed-pin assemblies. Stainless steel options available for corrosive environments.

Stainless race + stainless ball: add ‘-SS’ suffix (e.g., SLB24H-SS). Stainless race + steel ball: add ‘-S’ suffix (e.g., SLB24H-S). Zinc plated race available on request. Standard COM(-T) series available without the load-slot feature.

Applications

Where SLB Self-Lubricating Spherical Bearings Spherical Bearings Are Used

Hydraulic Cylinders & Lifting Equipment

Spherical plain bearings accommodate angular misalignment and oscillating motion at cylinder eyes, lifting arms, and other pivot connections. Select the race, seals, lubrication, and load direction for the duty cycle.

Construction, Agricultural & Material-Handling Pivots

These bearings are commonly used at heavily loaded pivot points in construction, forestry, agricultural, and material-handling machinery where slow oscillation, shock, contamination, and service access influence the bearing choice.

Automotive Suspension & Structural Linkages

The spherical inner and outer surfaces support controlled angular movement in suspension links, axle connections, and fabricated mechanisms. Confirm bore fit, housing support, edge loading, and required misalignment before installation.

Industrial Machinery

Used in industrial mechanisms, fixtures, and rugged assemblies where articulated movement, radial load support, and liner-based wear reduction are all required.

Corrosion-Sensitive Installations

Chosen where stainless race or stainless ball options help improve service life in exposed or corrosion-sensitive environments.

OEM Mechanical Assemblies

Frequently specified for OEM builds that need repeatable load-slot bearing geometry, PTFE-lined articulation, and optional material configurations.

FAQ

SLB Self-Lubricating Spherical Bearings Frequently Asked Questions

What is the SLB24H spherical bearing used for?

The SLB24H is a load-slot spherical plain bearing with a 1.5000" bore, designed so the ball and race can be assembled from the side — simplifying installation in confined or fixed-pin assemblies where a standard bearing can't be dropped in axially.

What are the bore, OD, and width of the SLB24H?

Bore (B) is 1.5000", OD (D) is 2.7500", body width (W) is 1.375", inner race width (T) is 1.094", ball diameter is 2.312", and flat OD (O) is 1.860", weighing approximately 1.358 lb.

What load and misalignment rating does the SLB24H carry?

The SLB24H is rated at 135,950 lb static radial load with ±8.5° misalignment angle.

What are the ball and race materials on the SLB24H?

The 52100 bearing steel ball is precision ground, heat treated, and hard chrome plated. The alloy steel race is heat treated and oil coated, with a reinforced nylon race and PTFE liner for self-lubricating operation.

Why is the SLB24H called a load-slot bearing?

The load-slot design allows the ball and race to be assembled from the side, simplifying installation in confined or fixed-pin assemblies. A reinforced nylon race with PTFE liner provides self-lubricating operation.

Is a stainless steel version of the SLB24H available?

Stainless steel options available for corrosive environments. Add '-SS' for a stainless race with stainless ball (e.g., SLB24H-SS), or '-S' for a stainless race with a standard steel ball (e.g., SLB24H-S); zinc-plated race is also available on request. The standard COM(-T) series is available without the load-slot feature.
