GGB Durability in Every Field


Agricultural implements and attachments play a vital role in streamlining essential tasks like planting, cultivating, and harvesting, but they must also withstand a range of demanding application challenges, including extremely heavy loads, corrosive environments, stick-slip operation, and long maintenance intervals. Exposure to harsh terrain and debris further intensifies the need for durable, low-friction components that can perform reliably over extended service cycles.

GGB addresses these challenges with advanced solutions engineered to deliver smooth, consistent performance, reduce wear, and extend operational life. By minimizing maintenance and maximizing efficiency, GGB products help ensure that agricultural equipment operates dependably in even the most punishing conditions.

High Performance Bearings for Agriculture


Recommended Products:

DU®

DU® self-lubricating bearings offer very good wear and low friction over a wide range of dry running applications. Also suitable for lubricated applications.

DP4®

DP4® offers low friction and good wear resistance in both dry and lubricated applications. Suitable for linear, oscillating and rotating movements.


DX®

DX® bearing material is ideal for marginally lubricated applications, delivering optimal performance under relatively high loads and low speeds.


HI-EX®

HI-EX® is a marginally lubricated bearing material with excellent wear resistance under thin film conditions. Available with non-indented overlay for hydrodynamic applications.





HSG

HSG is a self-lubricating bearing material with high static load capacity, excellent shock resistance, and superior friction and wear properties.



GAR-MAX®

GAR-MAX® is known for its high load capacity and excellent shock and misalignment resistance.





GAR-FIL

GAR-FIL provides a machinable bearing surface and offers a high rotational speed capacity. Excellent contamination resistance.



EP®

EP® provides good bearing performance in dry as well as lubricated or marginally lubricated working conditions. Good choice for medium working conditions compared to other engineered plastics materials.

Application Breakdown


PIVOT POINTS GGB® - Provides advanced pivot point bearing solutions designed specifically for agricultural attachments, offering features such as self-lubrication, corrosion resistance, and high load-bearing capabilities to ensure prolonged service life and optimal performance in the challenging conditions encountered in farming applications.

STEERING MECHANISMS GGB®’s - Plain bearing materials are designed for steering mechanisms in implement applications, providing robustness and precision to navigate diverse terrains while ensuring smooth operation and extended service life under demanding conditions

LINKAGE POINTS GGB® - Provides bearing solutions specifically designed for linkage points in agriculture implements, delivering superior performance and durability to withstand heavy loads, vibration, and frequent movement, ensuring quiet and precise operation, while extending maintenance intervals in agricultural applications

The GGB Advantage


LOWER SYSTEM COST GGB® - Bearings can help to reduce shaft costs by eliminating the need for hardening and machining grease paths. Their compact, one-piece construction provides space and weight savings and simplifies assembly.

LOW FRICTION, HIGH WEAR RESISTANCE - Low friction is vital for efficient machine efficiency and wear resistance critical for durability and service life. Low friction also minimizes the risk of stick-slip or stiction effects during start up. Agriculture equipment manufacturers rely on our plain bearings and polymer coating solutions for grease-free and maintenance-free operation.

MAINTENANCE-FREE GGB - Bearings are self-lubricating, making them ideal for applications requiring long bearing life without continuous maintenance, as well as operating conditions with inadequate or no lubrication.

ENVIRONMENTAL - Greaseless, lead-free GGB bearings comply with increasingly stringent environmental regulations such as the EU RoHS directive, restricting the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment.
