Motion offers a large inventory of insert bearings and cartridges from leading brands like Timken, Sealmaster,NTN, and AMI Bearings. Insert bearings are easily mounted bearings that reduce friction and carry loads. They have inner diameters larger than the shaft on which they are installed and do not need to be press-fit onto shafts like standard bearings. They require setscrews, locking collars, and tapered adapters to secure their position. Insert bearings used in high-speed applications can be relubricated through an oil hole in the outer ring, and bearings used in food processing can be coated in black oxide to resist corrosion.
