Radial spherical plain bearings consist of an inner ring with a convex spherical outer surface and an outer ring with a corresponding concave spherical inner surface. This design is particularly suitable for bearing arrangements that must accommodate misalignment between the shaft and the housing, or must be capable of reciprocating oscillating or periodic tilting or rotating motion at relatively slow sliding speeds, often under heavy loads.

JOJI offers a wide range of radial spherical plain bearings with various sliding contact surface combinations.
