Fibre Lube Rulon Bushings
Daemar’s Rulon bearings offer strong performance across a wide range of applications, often surpassing metal alternatives. They’re designed for harsh, high-load, non-lubricated conditions, delivering durability, corrosion resistance, and long service life. Their maintenance-free design removes the need for traditional greasing systems, helping reduce wear, improve efficiency, and extend equipment longevity.

Rulon® LR Bearings
Maroon material with low deformation characteristics
Select Rulon LR when your application calls for:
- High temperature
- Chemical resistance
- Minimal moisture absorption
- Low friction
Typical applications: Dryer oven conveyors, vacuum metalizing equipment, photographic processing equipment, hydraulic actuators, and machine tool ways and gib slides.

Rulon® J Bearings
Dull gold polymer-filled material for lower abrasion and softer mating surfaces
Select Rulon J when your application calls for:
- Low maintenance
- Self-lubrication
- Wash down and caustic resistance
- Standard and custom sizes
Typical applications: Plain paper copiers, medical equipment, anemometers, and printer heads.

Rulon® 641 Bearings
White FDA compliant material for most bonding surfaces
Select Rulon 641 when your application calls for:
- Food and beverage handling
- Semiconductor/wafer processing
- Medical and pharmaceutical products
- Compatible with a wide range of lubricants
Typical applications: Food processing machinery and conveyors, prepared meat and frozen food equipment, and medicinal and pharmaceutical preparations.
Bearing Selection Considerations
Bearing selection depends on load, speed, PV, operating environment, mating surface, and duty cycle. Rulon LR performs best against hard running surfaces; Rulon J is designed for soft mating surfaces such as 316 stainless, aluminum, mild steel, and frequently, other plastics; and Rulon 641 is compatible with mild steel, 303 and 316 stainless steel, and harder surfaces. Shaft hardness and surface finish also affect performance.
