This is because plain cylindrical bearings have more contact surface area than rolling element bearings, so loads are more evenly distributed across the surface. Cylindrical bearing applications may include applications with either radial or axial loads.
CYLINDRICAL BEARINGS DESIGN, MATERIALS & BENEFITS
Switching from rolling element bearings to cylindrical bearings results in savings from lower parts costs, low-risk assembly and installation, relaxed shaft tolerances and surface finish plus hardness requirements. Cylindrical bearings resist damage from fatigue, shock and edge loads, and they tolerate misalignment better than rolling element bearings. Ultimately, customers will experience savings from lower maintenance costs and extended equipment life.
NICER bearings have straight outside and inside diameters and are flush inside the housing. Due to their simple construction, cylindrical bearings are easy to install with a simple press fitting, reducing potential installation damage. They are slim, which saves space and weight, and cylindrical bearing sizes vary according to their use and client needs.
NICER offers many shapes, sizes and materials of cylindrical bearings, including:
Metals and Bimetals,
Metal-Polymers,
Engineered Plastics,
Fiber Reinforced Composites and more.
WHAT ARE CYLINDRICAL BEARINGS USED FOR?

Agricultural Equipment
Air Conditioning Compressors
Pumps
Engine Rocker Arms
Gearboxes and Transmission Systems
Kingpins
Road Sweepers
Steering Systems
Throttle Butterfly Valves
