The GGB Advantage
LOWER SYSTEM COST
GGB bearings reduce shaft costs by eliminating the need for
hardening and machining grease paths. Their compact,
one-piece construction provides space and weight savings
and simplifies assembly.
LOW-FRICTION,
HIGH WEAR RESISTANCE
Low coefficients of friction eliminate the need for lubrication,
while providing smooth operation, reducing wear and extending
service life. Low-friction also eliminates the effects of stick-slip
or “stiction” during start up.
MAINTENANCE-FREE
GGB bearings are self-lubricating, making them ideal for
applications requiring long bearing life without continuous
maintenance, as well as operating conditions with inadequate
or no lubrication.
ENVIRONMENTAL
Greaseless, lead-free GGB bearings comply with increasingly
stringent environmental regulations such as the EU RoHS
directive restricting the use of hazardous substances in
certain types of electrical and electronic equipment.
CUSTOMER SUPPORT
GGB’s flexible production platform and extensive supply
network assure quick turnaround and timely deliveries.
In addition, we offer local applications engineering and
technical support.

FABRICATION
At temperatures up to 250°C the polytetrafluroethylene (PTFE) present in the lining material is completely inert
so that even on the rare occasions in which DP4, DP4-B, DP10 or DP11 bushes are drilled or sized after
assembly there is no danger in boring or burnishing.
At higher temperatures however, small quantities of toxic fumes can be produced and the direct inhalation of
these can cause an influenza type of illness which may not appear for some hours but which subsides without
after-effects in 24-48 hours.
Such fumes can arise from PTFE particles picked up on the end of a cigarette. Therefore smoking should be
prohibited where DP4, DP4-B, DP10 or DP11 are being machined.
