Orkot® Bearings
WORLD’S LEADING COMPOSITE BEARING
Orkot® is a high-grade polymer composite material containing solid lubricants. Compared to metal bearings Orkot® offers many advantages. They are maintenance-free and accept shaft misalignment and edge loads even under most demanding circumstances. Orkot® material is certified and therefor approved to be used in a variety of food and marine applications.
From Orkot® Djons manufactures plain bearings and spherical bearings that are highly wear-proof and have excellent dimensional accuracy.

Orkot® Spherical Bearings
SERIES FOR ANY APPLICATION
Spherical bearings allow a bearing to operate with misalignment in the shaft. It permits both rotational movement as well as angular rotation.
Our spherical bearing parts are produced with Orkot®, making them maintenance free and suitable for dry and wet conditions. They are approved for both the food and marine industry.
Djons Spherical Bearings include five series that can be applied in almost any application.
FEATURES SPHERICAL BEARINGS
Maintenance free, no lubrication required
Friction coefficient is constant even after standstill
Accommodates long-term constant loads
Load capability is comparable with metal spherical bearings
Can be used in temperatures up to 130°C
Useful in underwater applications
CHOOSING A SPHERICAL BEARING FOR YOUR APPLICATION
The type of spherical bearings required depends on the position of the shaft and the movement in the application. Ask yourself:
- Is the tilt angle larger or smaller than 2°?
- Is the movement rotational, swaying or both?
View Djons helpful Engineering Manual to help you select the correct spherical bearing for your application.
ENGINEERING SERVICE
Djons has a team of highly skilled engineers who can help you to find the best solution for your application. We advise which type of bearing is suitable; we adapt them to suit specific conditions or we customise bearing solutions to accommodate your specific requirements.
