Arvis® Load Ratings
Arvis® Load Ratings
- Check from the table below that the load does not exceed the limit for the cast iron housing.
- For full technical information on the various bushes, go to www.ggbearings.com
- Note that the thermal conductivity of these units is such that, in the ‘Application Factor’ for both DU & DX calculations a housing of a ‘Light pressing’ nature should be used.

MATERIALS
Standard bearing housings are made in grey cast iron. Other materials are available (See ‘Specials’) Bearings can be specified in DU or DX material according to requirement. Both materials are supplied with pre-finished bores.
SELECTION
As a general guide on selection. DU is a high performance dry-bearing material, used where lubricant is impracticable or undesirable and where the operating temperature is between -200°C and +280°C. DX gives outstanding performance when greased on assembly only. Re-greasing at extended intervals prolongs performance indefinitely. DX is suitable for operating temperatures up to 120°C.
SPECIALS
Pre-mounted self-aligning bearings other than the standards listed in this leaflet can be supplied to special order.
Variations from standard include: Bearings for shaft diameters over 100mm – Split housings to allow for assembly in awkward locations or to provide a greater length of bearing. Housings with provision for re-greasing (As an alternative. re-greasing can be through shaft end drilling). Housing for special applications made in SG iron or corrosion resistant materials.
