Tested in the test laboratory for use in the real world
To make sure our plain bearings withstand continuous use under extreme load, they are submitted to a variety of tests. This enables us to collect extensive data on their service life.The test results are added into our online tools for service life calculation. With these tools you can calculate the service life of our plain bearings for free.
