Adjustable Clearances
Pads with adjustable clearance offer unique flexibility to our customers for assembly and operation. We can offer pads whose clearance can be adjusted by two methods:
Mechanical
Specially designed screws, accessible from outside the bearing OD, allow customers to adjust clearances without disassembling the bearing.
Manual
A layer of shims placed inside the pivot allow customers to alter clearances by changing shim combinations, after disassembling the bearing
