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

	LEG Leading Edge Groove (LEG) lubrication technology revolutionized the hydrodynamic bearing industry when we introduced it in 1984 and it continues to be our premier directed lubrication bearing technology. Read More
