Igus GFI-1416-08 Flanged Sleeve Bearing 7/8 in Id

Product Description

The IGUS GFI-1416-08 is a flanged sleeve bearing manufactured from thermoplastic in the G300 series. It features a plain bore design with self-lubricating properties, eliminating the need for external grease or oil during normal service. The bearing has a 7/8 inch inside diameter, 1 inch outside diameter, and a 0.50 inch overall length. The flange measures 1.25 inches in outside diameter with a flange thickness of 0.062 inches. Rated for a maximum pressure times velocity of 28,600 psi, this bearing handles moderate to heavy load applications. It is installed by mechanical technicians and maintenance professionals in rotating or sliding shaft assemblies across industrial and OEM equipment.

The GFI-1416-08 is suited for use in light to medium industrial machinery, conveyor systems, agricultural equipment, and general OEM shaft support applications where a maintenance-free bearing solution is preferred. The self-lubricating G300 thermoplastic material performs across a wide temperature range of -40 to 275 degrees F, making it viable in both cold-storage and elevated-temperature environments. The flanged design provides a positive axial stop and simplifies alignment during installation.

Key Features

• Self-lubricating G300 thermoplastic material - no external lubrication required
• Maximum pressure times velocity rating of 28,600 psi for moderate to heavy load capacity
• Operating temperature range of -40 to 275 degrees F
• Flanged OD of 1.25 inches provides axial retention and alignment reference
• Plain bore design with 7/8 inch ID fits standard shaft sizes
• RoHS II compliant

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style flanged sleeve bearing replacement for shaft assemblies requiring a 7/8 inch bore, 1 inch housing bore, and a flanged retention design in thermoplastic construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, or OEM assembly technicians. De-energize and lock out all equipment before bearing replacement. Press or hand-fit the bearing into a housing bore between 0.9997 and 1.0005 inches for proper interference fit - verify housing bore dimensions before installation. Do not use petroleum-based lubricants on the bearing surface, as the G300 material is self-lubricating and added grease can attract contaminants.
