This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) covers airframe plain spherical bearings utilizing a copper-beryllium ball and corrosion resistant steel outer race for use between −65 °F and +350 °F.
This standard details two methods of inspecting TFE lined spherical or journal bearing wear outside the test apparatus. The methods described herein are applicable only to bearings which were unidirectionally loaded and the area of sliding wear is known and held constant throughout the dynamic test. The two methods described are: a Destructive Inspection - Cut and measure (not applicable to molded liners) b Non-destructive Inspection - Radial play (gage) measurement
This test method outlines a recommended procedure for performing bond integrity tests of bonded peelable woven fabric reinforced polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) liners, hereafter referred to within this document as "PTFE liner" or "liner". The data from these tests shall be used to determine if the product meets the "bond integrity" requirements of the applicable specifications.
This specification covers the requirements for sliding spherical, sleeve, and thrust self-lubricating bearings which are for use in the ambient temperature range -65°F to +160°F at high cyclic speeds.
This specification covers plain rod end bearings, corrosion resistant steel (CRES) or alloy steel, which are self-aligning and self-lubricating by incorporating polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in a liner between the ball and race for use in the temperature range -65 to +325 °F (-54 to +163 °C).
This specification covers plain rod end bearings which are self-aligning and self-lubricating by incorporating polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in a liner between the ball and outer ring for use in the temperature range -65°F to +325°F.
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes the requirements for self-aligning, self-lubricating plain spherical bearings incorporating polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in a liner between the ball and the outer race for use in a temperature range of -65 to +250 °F (-54 to +121 °C).
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes the requirements for self-aligning, self-lubricating plain spherical bearings incorporating polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in a liner between the ball and the outer race for use in a temperature range of -65 to +250 °F (-54 to +121 °C).
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) covers plain spherical bearings which are self-aligning and self-lubricating by utilizing polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in a fabric composite or molded material that is bonded to the inner diameter surface of the race and when specified, to the bore diameter surface of the ball. These bearings are for use in the temperature range -65 to +325 °F (-54 to +163 °C).

This specification covers plain spherical bearings which are self-aligning and self-lubricating by incorporating polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) in a liner between the ball and race (outer ring). PTFE is incorporated in a fabric or composite material bonded to the ID of the outer ring, or in a composite material molded into a pre-formed cavity between the inner and outer ring. These bearings are for use in the temperature range -65°F to +325°F (-54°C to +163°C.)
