These radial spherical plain bearings have an SKF Explorer steel/steel sliding contact surface combination. They are initially lubricated and have a triple-lip, heavy-duty contact seal on both sides. Compared to conventional steel/steel bearings, they have increased dynamic load ratings. Compared to the GE series, they have a wider inner ring and a larger outside diameter, which enable higher load ratings and larger tilt angles.
