CON-SERV Inc offers (3) basic pot bearing types: fixed, guided,
and free-moving. In order to give the engineer typical dimensional
data, the following criteria was adopted by CON-SERV Inc. as standard
for the bearing detailed.
CON-SERV offers other types of designs; consult Engineering Department personnel for design assistance. CON-SERV can supply full friction and proof-load testing on all pot & disc bearing designs.
