Sliding contact bearing<\/a>, e.g., plain bearing, journal bearing, sleeve bearing. In this surface, the shaft slides over the surface of the bush. To reduce friction, these two surfaces are separated by a film of oil. Bush is made of white metal or bronze.<\/p>\n Rolling contact bearing (Anti-friction bearing) In rolling contact bearing, sliding friction<\/a> is replaced by rolling friction. e.g. bearing used in machine tool spindles, automobile axles, gearboxes, and small size electric motor.<\/p>\n A rolling contact bearing is called as antifriction bearing as it offers very low friction f i.e.(0.005 \u2264 fR.C. \u2264 0.003).<\/p>\n << Previous<\/a> | Next >><\/a> Classification of Bearing Depending upon type of friction Sliding contact bearing, e.g., plain bearing, journal bearing, sleeve bearing.
