Higher Load Ratings

Larger outer diameter and wider raceway deliver substantially higher dynamic and static load ratings than equivalent GE bore sizes — up to 1,080 kN static for GEG120ES.

Larger Misalignment Angle

Rated misalignment angle α is greater than the standard GE series for the same bore, accommodating applications with larger structural angular deflections.

2RS Sealed Option

Outer ring lip seals on both sides retain grease and exclude contamination for industrial environments without additional housing seals.

ES Lubrication Grooves

Circumferential groove and oil holes in both rings ensure even grease distribution across the full spherical contact surface during re-lubrication.

Phosphate Treatment

Both rings phosphate-treated for improved corrosion resistance and grease adhesion at the sliding interface.

20 Bore Sizes

6 mm to 120 mm covering the full range of heavy industrial pivot and linkage applications.

100Cr6 Chrome Steel

Larger outer ring wall thickness versus GE series. HRC 58–64. Spherical surfaces ground to Ra 0.1–0.2 µm.

Phosphate Treatment

Applied to both rings for corrosion resistance and grease adhesion.

NBR Seals (2RS)

Rated −30°C to +110°C. Outer ring split in axial direction for assembly.

Heavy Hydraulic Cylinders

Large bore hydraulic actuator clevis joints in construction equipment, offshore platforms, and heavy press machines where load exceeds standard GE ratings.

Mining Equipment

Conveyor drive pivot joints, crusher toggle plate bearings, and hydraulic ram clevis pins in mining machinery require the elevated load capacity of the GEG series.

Steel Mill Equipment

Rolling mill guide arm pivots, shear blade linkages, and press frame joints use GEG bearings for their high load capacity under cyclic shock loads.

Offshore & Marine

Deck crane pivot joints, mooring winch linkages, and hydraulic stabiliser mounts in marine equipment use large GEG bearings for load capacity under extreme dynamic conditions.

Agricultural Heavy Duty

Large baler knotter drives, forage harvester knife head pivots, and self-propelled sprayer boom joints use GEG bearings for higher loads than standard GE can sustain.

Bridge & Civil Structures

Expansion joint bearings and structural pivot points in bridge designs use GEG series for high static loads and large angular deflection during thermal expansion.

🔎 Housing Bore

K7 or M7 tolerance for heavy loads. Verify housing bore against the larger GEG outer diameter — housings designed for GE series cannot accept GEG bearings of the same bore.

🔧 Shaft Tolerance

h6 for press fit; js6 for tight sliding. Use a hydraulic press for larger bore sizes — do not use impact force.

📈 Initial Lubrication

NLGI-2 EP grease. Fill 40% of internal cavity. For high-load applications, specify EP2 (extreme pressure) additive grease.

⚙ Re-lubrication Interval

200–400 hours under heavy continuous loads. Increase frequency in contaminated or wet environments. Purge until fresh grease exits.

🌡 Temperature Limit

Standard: −30°C to +110°C. For elevated temperature, specify high-temperature EP grease and FKM seals.

🔒 Load Direction

GEG bearings accept radial loads and combined radial plus axial loads. The maximum axial load fraction is typically 30% of C₀. Do not apply pure axial loads without verifying against the catalogue axial load data.

①

Identify Load Type

Confirm load exceeds standard GE rating or required misalignment angle exceeds the GE rated α before selecting GEG.

②

Select Bore & Series

Match bore d to shaft nominal. Verify GEG outer diameter D and width B against available housing bore depth.

③

Verify Misalignment Angle

Verify maximum misalignment angle against GEG-rated α. Calculate equivalent load including axial component — GEG series accepts higher combined loads.
