HPMB™ - New Machinable Filament Wound Bearings from GGB
GGB Bearing Technology has developed HPMB™, a new self-lubricating filament wound material with a machinable liner, providing tight dimensional control and class-leading tribological properties for industrial applications.
GGB Bearing Technology has developed HPMB™, a new self-lubricating filament
wound material with a machinable liner, providing tight dimensional control and
class-leading tribological properties for industrial applications.
HPMB™ liners are easily machined by GGB or after bearing installation by end-users
with readily available single point tools. The filament wound construction of the
bearings offers high strength and impact resistance, high load capacities, excellent
shock and edge loading resistance, low friction and wear, long service life, negligible
water absorption and excellent corrosion resistance.
The bearings are self-lubricating, minimizing maintenance and eliminating lubricants
that be harmful to the environment. They can be used in dry or water-lubricated
applications with high loads, tight clearances and slow rotation or oscillatory

The bearings are self-lubricating, minimizing maintenance and eliminating lubricants
that be harmful to the environment. They can be used in dry or water-lubricated
applications with high loads, tight clearances and slow rotation or oscillatory
movements. Potential applications include railroad stabilization systems and brake
linkages, injection molding machines, guide bushings, hydraulic cylinder pivots and
valves.
HPMB™ bearings are available in cylindrical and flanged configurations on a madeto-
order basis. For more information about HPMB™ bearings, visit
