Product Description


Spherical bearing, also called spherical bridge bearing, is one type of bridge bearings with large rotation capacity. Spherical bearing is formed by top steel plate, stainless steel slide, PTFE slide, convex plate, curved PTFE and concave plate. The sliding of convex plate and concave plate can accommodate the structural rotations of the beam end. The stainless steel slide and PTFE slide can further reduce friction coefficient, thus displacement of expansion and contraction can be accommodated. Thus, spherical bearings are especially suitable for more complex bridges.

Classification
The spherical bridge bearings are classified into three types according to different sliding direction.
* Fixed type. Provide rotations capacity from any direction only.
* Guided type (Uni-directional sliding). Rotation plus movement in one direction.
* Free sliding (multi-directional sliding). Rotation plus movement in all directions.

Features
* Available in any directions movements.
* For the PTFE sheet, there are minimum sliding friction coefficient.
* PTFE sheet with lubricant to reduce sliding friction.
* Accommodate high rotations and any directional movements.
* Suitable for low temperature regions.
* The effect on concrete reaction is homogeneous.
* Strong enough for long time service.
* Complying with BS EN-1337, KS4424, AASHO, ISO or other custom standards.
