This plain bearing accommodates axial loads through a spherical sliding contact between steel mating surfaces, allowing angular misalignment at the contact point. The design has a height of 9.5 mm and a net mass of 41.0 g, with a steel/steel sliding pair that requires regular maintenance to sustain proper function. Since the sliding surfaces are steel on steel, periodic lubrication is necessary to reduce friction and wear at the contact zone. The spherical geometry allows the bearing to compensate for angular deviation between mating components, making it suitable for axial load applications where alignment cannot be guaranteed to be exact. Regular relubrication intervals should be maintained according to operating conditions to ensure consistent sliding performance.
