As rotating equipment evolves, so do Kingsbury's directed lubrication bearing products.
These bearings direct oil from an opening in the base ring, to the leading edge of the shoes, and onto the moving surfaces of the bearing. With this method, just enough oil is applied to enable the bearing to run smoothly. The key benefits of directed lubrication technology are:
Reliable operation with lower oil flow requirements
Dramatically reduced bearing power losses
Much lower operating temperatures
Significantly increased load capacity
