GF type is a ferruled slipping bearing in elastomer stud with teflon slip coating.
Horizontal displacements of the structure are taken up by deforming the bearing itself. This causes a horizontal return force. The horizontal load is limited and independent from the bearing's slip coefficient.
The GF slip bearing provides free expansion with reduced horizontal reaction.
To date, no comment is available about this product
/Connection of high vertical loads
/Allow δ rotation without creating tensions outside the core
/Ensure free expansion with reduction of the horizontal load
On a sintered elastomer stud (1) of 10, 14 or 20 mm, a teflon coat (2) is vulcanised.
The teflon sheet slides on an acetal sliding plate (3). The acetal plate is 2mm thick and is protected by a 2 mm elastomer sheet (5). The assembly is surrounded with a polystyrene foam (4), thus creating the expansion chamber. The current version authorizes a 20 mm slide with a sliding coefficient of μ = 0.10.
