GE E / GE ES 2RS Spherical Plain Bearing – Maintenance Required

GE E / GE ES 2RS Spherical Plain Bearing is a documented maintenance required series for industrial linkage or pivot applications. Maintenance-required radial spherical bearing; single axial split in the outer ring. Use the main image for identification and the full product description for model-by-model dimensions and load data.

MOQ: 50 pcs. Minimum order value USD 1,500; mixed orders and trial quantities welcome.

GE E / GE ES 2RS is the standard serviceable radial spherical plain bearing family in the supplied catalogue. The inner and outer rings form a spherical sliding pair that can accommodate alignment movement while carrying radial load and, within the application limits, axial components. Bore sizes run from 6 to 160 mm.

Typical Applications

Hydraulic cylinder pivots

Construction-equipment joints

Machine pivots with oscillating or tilting motion

Selection Guide

Choose the bearing around the shaft diameter and housing envelope, then compare dynamic and static ratings with the real duty. Oscillating amplitude, load direction, pin stiffness and lubrication conditions all affect service behavior.

Installation & Maintenance

These bearings require maintenance. Provide a lubricant route through the surrounding housing and keep grooves and holes aligned with that supply path. For 2RS variants, protect the seals during pressing.

GEG E / GEG ES 2RS provides a heavier envelope; PB uses a bronze liner for smaller serviceable bearings; GE ET 2RS is a maintenance-free PTFE-fabric alternative.

FAQ

Single axial split in the outer ring — what changes selection?
ES and 2RS suffixes change the lubrication/sealing arrangement, so the exact designation should stay on drawings and purchase orders.
ES versions with lubrication grooves and holes — what should installers watch?
A suitable installation tool should load the ring being fitted rather than transmitting press force through the sliding interface.
Machine pivots with oscillating or tilting motion — suitable duty?
Machine pivots with oscillating or tilting motion is a screening application for the GE-ES series; final size follows the model table and actual joint duty.
