Cylindrical bearings - Import export

The Rockflon series is a line of structural cylindrical bearings that generally allow rotations of ±2° around only one horizontal axis. They represent an evolution of the roller bearings, in which rotation movements take place through the rolling friction between two steel elements, one flat and the other a cylindrical rocker so that contact occurs along the cylinder generator line. The mutual sliding of 2 plane surfaces, one of stainless steel and the other of PTFE, ensures the bearing's translation movements. The use of Rocklon bearings is recommended whenever a high degree of stiffness against transverse rotations is considered necessary, a characteristic also typical of the series. Their elongated rectangular shape along the rotation axis is especially suitable if there is limited space available in the perpendicular direction to the rotation axis. Rockflon bearings are classified by two letters that have the following meaning: KF = Fixed Rockflon Bearing KU = Longitudinally guid

The Cernoflon series is a line of structural cylindrical bearings that generally allow rotations of ±3° around only one horizontal axis. Inside the bearing there are two different sliding surfaces made of either stainless or hard-chromium plated steel, which make contact with the PTFE: one surface is cylindrical to make rotations possible, and the other is flat (absent in fixed-type bearings), to allow translation movements. Horizontal loads perpendicular to the rotation axis are conveyed through the cylindrical sliding surface the concavity of which is dimensioned accordingly. The use of Cernoflon bearings is recommended whenever a high degree of stiffness against transverse rotations is considered necessary, a characteristic also typical of the Rockflon series. Their elongated rectangular shape along the rotation axis is especially suitable if there is limited space available in the perpendicular direction to the rotation axis. By virtue of the particular dielectric characteristics

In this class of structural bearings rotation is permitted around just one horizontal axis. Its use is recommended whenever a high degree of stiffness against transverse rotations is considered necessary. Their elongated rectangular shape along the rotation axis is especially suitable if there is limited space available in the perpendicular direction to the rotation axis. TYPES: Cernoflon Rockflon

The structural bearings are restraining devices used in structures, bridges and buildings, in order to precisely convey loads and restrain set degrees of freedom of movement. The range of FIP INDUSTRIALE structural bearings includes: all the types made of steel all the types made of rubber In addition to traditional types, FIP INDUSTRIALE also makes special devices such as anti-lifting, load measuring bearings, bearings for incrementally launched bridges etc. TYPES: Pot bearings Reinforced elastomeric bearings Sferopol bearings Cylindrical hinge bearings Special bearings
