Spherical Bearing Bushing GatherTOOL S20x10x13 Copper Iron 19.7mm

Description

Product Overview

The GatherTOOL Spherical Bearing Bushing S20x10x13 is engineered for precision performance in a wide range of industrial and consumer applications. Constructed from a high‑strength copper‑iron alloy, this bearing combines excellent thermal conductivity with superior wear resistance, ensuring reliable operation even under heavy load conditions. The spherical design accommodates misalignment, reducing stress on shafts and extending the service life of connected equipment. With an outer diameter of 19.7 mm and a compact thickness of 13 mm, the bushing fits seamlessly into tight mechanical spaces while delivering the torque handling required for demanding motor environments. The bearing number S20x10x13 denotes a standardized size that aligns with industry specifications, making it a drop‑in replacement for many existing assemblies. Its compatibility with standard grease lubricants simplifies maintenance and promotes consistent performance over time. The product weight of just 1 gram underscores the efficiency of the material selection, providing a lightweight yet robust solution for high‑speed rotation.

Designed with both durability and ease of installation in mind, the bushing features a smooth, machined surface that minimizes friction and heat buildup. The copper‑iron composition offers a balanced blend of conductivity and strength, which is particularly advantageous in applications where electrical grounding and mechanical stability are critical. Whether used in fan motors, electric motors, or washing machine gear trains, this spherical bearing bushing delivers consistent, low‑noise operation that enhances overall system efficiency. The inclusion of a precise bearing number and clear dimensional specifications ensures that engineers and technicians can quickly identify the correct part, reducing downtime and simplifying inventory management.

Usage

In fan motor assemblies, the S20x10x13 bushing provides a stable pivot point that absorbs vibration and compensates for shaft misalignment, resulting in quieter operation and longer fan blade lifespan. Its spherical geometry allows the rotor to maintain optimal clearance, which is essential for maintaining airflow efficiency and reducing energy consumption. For electric motor applications, the bearing bushing supports high rotational speeds while maintaining precise alignment, which is vital for preserving motor torque and preventing premature wear on adjacent components. The copper‑iron alloy’s thermal properties help dissipate heat generated during prolonged operation, protecting both the bearing and the motor housing from overheating.

In washing machine gear trains, the bushing serves as a critical load‑bearing element that endures repetitive cycles of acceleration and deceleration. Its ability to handle radial and axial loads simultaneously makes it ideal for the complex motion paths found in modern washing machines. The grease‑compatible surface ensures that lubrication can be applied easily during routine maintenance, extending the interval between service checks and reducing overall ownership costs. Additionally, the bushing’s compact dimensions allow it to be integrated into space‑constrained designs without compromising structural integrity.

Beyond these primary uses, the bushing is suitable for any application that requires a reliable, low‑friction pivot point, such as small gearboxes, robotic joints, and precision instrumentation. Its versatility stems from the combination of material strength, dimensional accuracy, and ease of installation, making it a preferred choice for engineers seeking a balance between performance and cost‑effectiveness.
