About Arvis Bearing Housings
Arvissjourney began in 1981, when they operated from a warehouse so small that its contents had to be unpacked onto the car park every morning before production could begin. Through innovation and investing in the latest technology and machinery, they have grown to be a leading supplier of all types of bearing housing throughout the world.Bearing housings have been around since the bronze age and have kept industries moving for thousands of years. Over time, these products have evolved to become better suited to their purpose. As one of the leading bearing housing designers, manufacturers and suppliers, Arvis is at the centre of this evolution. Well-known for high-quality products and excellent service.
Arvis Plain BearingsGlacier-type DU or DX steel-backed bearings are pre-mounted in captive inner members and accommodate shaft misalignments up to 15. They are high-performance and eliminate edge loading, allowing full use to be made of DU and DX performance.

SAPB Split Self-Aligning Plain Bearings
These units have a wide field of application brought about using specializedbushing. They can be used for many applications involving conditions such as high temperatures, dangerous liquids and hostile environments.
Arvis Split 4 Bolt Flange Units
The FLS range of fully split self-aligning bearing units is able to withstand continuous misalignment and oscillating shaft movements. The bushes can be self-lubricating, which is ideal for applications in which lubrication is not possible or is time consuming and costly.
Steel SN-type Blocks
These housings are split Plummer blocks primarily designed for self-aligning ball bearings and spherical roller bearings mounted directly on cylindrical shafts or adapter sleeves. Typical applications would be in heavy industry such as steelmaking and processing, quarries, and mining etc.
FC Range
Replacement steel Plummer blocks for SNL-SN, SNH, SNA, SNV and SNE are designed for applications where extra strength and resistance to shock loads are required. Produced to a modern design, they are interchangeable with SN Plummer blocks and produced for quick delivery.
