KWS White Nylon Hanger Bearings
KWS stocks both style 216 and 226 hanger bearings from White Nylon (Nylon 6.6) material. White Nylon is a strong, durable, and FDA compliant polymer that combines natural lubricity with excellent wear resistance. The material resists many chemicals, oils, and solvents, making it ideal for a wide range of conveying applications. Since the bearing material is self-lubricating, it reduces heat build-up and minimizes shaft wear for longer service life.
Features
High Strength and Toughness – With excellent fatigue resistance, White Nylon performs reliably under continuous operation.
Self-Lubricating – Natural lubricity reduces friction, eliminating the need for external lubrication.
Chemical Resistance – Withstands a broad range of chemicals, oils, and solvents.
FDA Compliant – Approved for use in food-grade applications.
Temperature Performance – Operates in environments with temperatures up to 190°F.
Benefits
Reduced Maintenance Costs – Long service life and self-lubrication minimize downtime and replacement needs.
Low Maintenance – No external lubrication required, resulting in nearly maintenance-free operation.
Extended Equipment Life – Smooth, low-friction operation reduces shaft wear and protects other conveyor components.
Application Versatility – Ideal for handling food products, grains, chemicals, plastics, and other free-flowing, non-abrasive bulk materials.
Reliable Performance – Strong, resilient material ensures consistent operation in demanding environments.
White Nylon bearings are ideal for screw conveyor applications involving light to moderate loads and speeds up to 60-rpm. Bulk materials such as various chemicals and food products that are free-flowing and non-abrasive with bulk densities less than 50-lbs. per cubic foot are perfect applications for the use of White Nylon hanger bearings.
FDA Compliant and Used in Food-Grade Applications
White Nylon is Resistant to a Variety of Chemicals
