Within their line of spherical bearings, Cablecraft offers a basic precision molded race metal offering known as the COM-P series. This version offers a lower cost and is ideal for numerous MRO and OEM applications which need snap ring or press fit retained bearing applications.
The strength of the loader slot design is combined with the popular feel and fit of their molded race rod ends in the COM-P spherical bearings, giving them increased strength. The bearing is self-lubricating due to the plastic race of COM-P.
Compared with other standard plastic race bearings, the COM-P shows enhanced wear characteristics, increased strength and is more economical. The housing design can also be plated for extra corrosion resistance on all surfaces and does not require machining after assembly. After the ball is loaded into the key slot, it is held in by the metal housing and the fiberglass reinforced nylon.
