This radial spherical plain bearing transmits load through a steel/steel sliding contact surface between the inner and outer ring, allowing angular misalignment between the shaft and housing. It is built to DIN ISO 12240-1, dimension series E, in an open design without sealing, with net mass of 0.221 kg and radial internal clearance CN (Group N). The GE35-DO designation identifies this size within the series. The steel/steel sliding surface gives the bearing high load rating and supports demanding lifetime requirements, but requires maintenance through regular lubrication since it has no integrated sealing to keep contaminants out or retain lubricant. The CN internal clearance suits standard operating conditions with predictable radial play. As a plain bearing with self-aligning capability, GE35-DO accommodates shaft deflection and misalignment without introducing additional radial clearance beyond the specified group.
