DESIGN BETTER PERFORMANCE INTO YOUR NEXT
PROJECT
POLYGON’S CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT BEARINGS HELP OPERATORS STAY PRODUCTIVE WHILE REDUCING MAINTENANCE COSTS.
Polygon bearings are engineered to be self-lubricating and maintenance-free, providing an ideal solution for many construction and heavy equipment applications. Manufacturers of construction and other off-highway equipment trust Polygon composite bearings to deliver excellent load capacities, low friction, resistance to corrosion and other benefits. Leading equipment manufacturers and their Tier-1 suppliers rely on Polygon’s bearing assemblies to deliver the performance demanded by the construction industry.
POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
- Excavators
- Mini & micro excavators
- Bulldozers
- Backhoes
- Skid steers
- Wheel loaders
- Mining equipment
- Articulating joints
- Cylinder base and rod ends
- Cylinder movement pivot points
WHEN TO DESIGN IN POLYGON COMPOSITE BEARINGS
- Self-lubrication is required
- Bearing neglect could lead to product liability claims or premature failure
- Maintenance costs need to be closely monitored
- Stick-slip conditions exist
- High load capacities are needed
- Resistance to chemical, galvanic or fretting-related corrosion is a problem
- Galling and scoring need to be minimized
- Electrical insulation is required
