This graphite bearing provides a low-friction pivot point in the driveline or linkage of a self-propelled forage harvester. It is installed where a rotating shaft or lever passes through a stationary housing, with the graphite-impregnated material acting as a dry lubricant that does not require external grease supply. Wear in this bearing allows play in the linkage, which can cause misalignment of the driven component and accelerate wear on the adjacent shaft or pin. The bearing is pressed into its bore and should be seated fully against the housing shoulder during installation.
