MAXAM® Bearings Overview

MAXAM® Bearings are engineered to excel in harsh operating environments where conventional bearings tend to fail. MAXAM Bearings have been proven to perform despite harsh conditions including:

Intense heat:  Because of temperature ratings of up to
650 degrees F for standard MAXAM material and 1000 degrees F for high-temperature MAXAM material, MAXAM Bearings can operate in hot applications from steelmaking to industrial and commercial ovens.

Moisture:  Exposure to and/or immersion in water, mild acids, cleaning solutions, or other fluids such as zinc pots, pickling lines, and other items.

Limited frequency or quality of lubrication:  In applications when lubrication poses challenges or problems, MAXAM Bearings typically outlast conventional bearings.

Contaminants:  Dirt, dust, particulates.

Intermittent or slow-speed operation:  MAXAM Bearings sustain speeds up to 450 RPM, depending on size. 

Extreme radial and shock loads:  The unique characteristics of MAXAM Bearing design and material enable it to absorb and survive the punishment typical of heavy industrial applications, such as:

 - Caster rolls
 - Rolling or bar mills
 - Roll stands
 - Coil and other heavy conveyors
 - Rail-mounted carts
