Aircraft Door Bearings
Rexnord® Shafer®, PSI® and Rexlon® bearings can be found on commercial aircraft door assemblies and door stops pin locations because they offer:
• Low-friction operation
• Precise bearing clearance fits
• Corrosion-resistant materials
• Maintenance-free capabilities
Passenger Door Bearings
Shafer offers both single- and double-row roller bearings to meet the lighter duty requirements for passenger doors. These roller bearings carry a higher load capacity than ball bearings of similar size, and allow for misalignment. Features include:
• Minimal to zero wear rate over life of aircraft
• Low friction (.001 - .002 in operation)
• Self-aligning
• Corrosion resistant
• Relubricatable
Our bearings are available in a variety of sizes that can be designed to meet your application needs. Please contact our engineering department to discuss the specifics of your application to ensure optimum cost, performance, and reliability.
Cargo Door Bearings
Shafer offers both single- and double-row roller bearings to meet the lighter duty requirements for cargo doors. These roller bearings carry a higher load capacity than ball bearings of similar size, and allow for misalignment. Features include:
• Minimal to zero wear rate over life of aircraft
• Low friction (.001 - .002 in operation)
• Self-aligning
• Corrosion resistant
• Relubricatable
