Product Details

We supply a wide range of Ball and Roller bearings for Industrial, Agricultural, and Automotive requirements. We source the best product at the best price for our customer’s needs, offering traditional German, British, USA, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese brands that have been reliably supplied into the local market for several years, all conforming to ISO standards.

Our range includes:

• • Ball Bearings
• • Roller Bearings
• • Needle Roller Bearings
• • Spherical Plain Bearings
• • Ball Thrust Bearings
• • Cup and Cone Bearings
• • Pillow Block Bearings
• • Plummer Block Bearings
• • UCF Flange Bearings
• • Glacier Bushes
• • Bearings for automotive air conditioners and gearboxes – for cars, LDVs, trucks, and farming machinery
• • Male and Female Rod Ends – kept in stock

We understand the importance of uptime, which is why we offer daily collections from Johannesburg and special trips in breakdown situations to ensure you receive your bearings as fast as possible.

We carry a wide range of metric and imperial oil seals in stock. We also source various seal designs based on customer requirements including size, material, temperature range, and application.

We supply:

• • Viton Seals – Offering excellent resistance to heat, chemicals, and fuels
• • Hydraulic Seals – Designed to handle high pressure, extreme temperatures, and transverse forces in hydraulic cylinders
• • Polyurethane Hydraulic Seals – Made up for hydraulic and pneumatic applications as per your requirements
• • End Caps – Used to close off bearing housings and mechanical assemblies
• • O-Rings – Available in Metric and Imperial kits, in materials such as Nitrile, EPDM, and Viton
• • O-Ring Cord – Nitrile cord kept in stock; Silicone and Viton cords available on request

Hydraulic applications are especially demanding. Not only must the hydraulic seals and O-rings prevent leakage of fluid from the cylinder, but they must also withstand high pressures, extreme temperatures, and transverse forces. In these environments, seals serve a function far beyond simple sealing—they are critical to overall equipment performance. We supply both single and double-acting fluid seals and can fabricate Polyurethane seals for hydraulic and pneumatic applications as required.

We supply a wide range of transmission solutions including:

• • Transmission Chain – British and American standard
• • Conveyor and Agricultural Chain
• • Pilot and Taper Bore Sprockets
• • Silent Chain and Sprockets
• • Rod Ends – Male and Female, available in stock
• • Tyre Couplings – Ideal for flexible power transmission with misalignment tolerance
• • HRC Couplings – General-purpose couplings offering flexibility and vibration damping
• • Spider Couplings – Compact, torsionally flexible couplings for shaft misalignment
• • Electric Motors – Single and Three Phase, for a wide range of industrial applications

Vesconite is a self-lubricating engineering polymer that lasts 8 to 10 times longer than brass or bronze, provided the shaft rotation is not excessive. It’s ideal in underwater, dusty, and dirty environments. Vesconite works extremely well submerged in water and various fluids, and also has excellent chemical and electrical insulating properties. Applications include subsea equipment, turbine and mud pumps, rudders and propeller shafts, stabilisers, drilling equipment, and hanger bearings.

Vesconite Hilube builds on the benefits of Vesconite by incorporating an internal lubricant, giving it an even lower friction coefficient. Combined with excellent dimensional stability, low wear rates, and a high load-bearing capacity, Hilube is ideal for applications with high PV (pressure × velocity) demands—four times that of standard nylon bushings.

PTFE

PTFE (Teflon) – A highly versatile engineering plastic known for its chemical inertness, high temperature resistance, low friction, non-stick surface, and excellent electrical insulation.

PTFE can also be supplied filled with bronze, glass, or carbon to meet specific application requirements.

Polyethylene

Polyethylene (HDPE and UHMWPE) – Supplied in both high and ultra-high densities, this material is ideal for wear strips, chain guides, and other components in industrial, railway, and agricultural applications.

Celeron

A composite laminate offered in fabric- or paper-based formats. Fabric-based grades are suited to mechanical uses such as bushes and wear strips, while paper-based grades are suitable for electrical insulation under normal to high current. Multiple grades are available depending on your application.

More Engineering Plastics

Engineering plastics cover a wide spectrum of materials engineered for specific mechanical, thermal, or chemical properties. If you have a particular application in mind, please feel free to reach out—we will gladly assist with material selection.

We supply:

• • V-Belt Pulleys – Available in single and multi-groove, manufactured from cast iron for strength and wear resistance
• • Taper Lock Bushes – For easy, secure mounting of pulleys
• • Poly-V Pulleys – For high-speed belt drive systems
• • Timing Belts and Timing Pulleys – For applications requiring synchronous drive

We can assist with selection and provide technical advice across all pulley and belt requirements.

Geared motors serve a broad range of industrial purposes—from conveyor systems to lifting and transferring operations. A geared motor is a compact, integrated unit made up of a motor and a gearbox.

We supply and support:

• • SEW Eurodrive (Germany) – A premium brand offering high-performance geared motor systems for industrial production lines and automation.


• • Hydromech (Italy) – Durable, reliable gearboxes and motors used widely across material handling and manufacturing sectors.

We’re able to assist with technical support, design consultations, and offer fast, dependable after-sales service and repairs.

We supply high-quality shim stock and custom shims used for precision alignment, spacing, and maintenance across a range of industries.
Our product range includes:

• • Brass Shim Stock
• • Stainless Steel Shim Stock
• • Copper Shim Stock

We continually monitor quality to maintain the high standards our customers expect.
