SKF radial spherical plain bearings have designs that make them particularly suitable for applications with multi-directional, self-aligning movements. They are primarily intended to accommodate radial loads, but also combined (radial and axial) loads. These bearings can compensate for misalignment between shaft and housing and are also suitable where oscillating or recurrent tilting or slewing movements must be possible at adequate sliding speeds, often combined with heavy loads.
