Igus KGLM-08 8mm Bore Spherical Bearing, 1.2 kN, 19 mm OD, 2.7 kN

This spherical bearing provides a self-lubricating pivot interface designed for applications requiring angular misalignment accommodation and smooth rotational movement. It is intended for industrial environments where compact, low-maintenance bearing solutions are needed, offering a durable polymer construction suitable for repeated motion and alignment tolerance in automation and mechanical systems.

• 8mm bore for secure shaft engagement and easy installation
• 19mm outside diameter for compact assembly integration
• 12mm width to suit constrained axial spaces
• 1.2kN axial static capacity to manage thrust loads
• 2.7kN radial static capacity for high radial loading
• Made from igumid G material providing self-lubricating performance

• Suitable for linkage joints in automation equipment where misalignment occurs
• Ideal for pivot points in electronic actuator assemblies
• Used with guide shafts in electrical panel mechanical systems
• Can be used for small machine tool trunnions requiring low-maintenance bearings

The spherical internal geometry permits angular movement between shaft and housing, reducing stress from misalignment without external lubrication.

The igumid G composition provides built-in lubrication, minimising the need for re-lubrication and reducing scheduled maintenance tasks.

Its polymer construction and specified outer diameter allow substitution where space is limited and reduced friction is required, provided static load limits are observed.

Ensure axial and radial static capacities match or exceed applied peak loads and verify shaft fitment to the 8mm bore for correct load distribution.

igubal® Spherical Bearings are designed to run with a clearance between the shaft and the inside diameter of the ball, to prevent the ball turning in the housing.
