Reid Select Rotary Motion

Ball bearings are capable of rotational speeds that exceed the limits of a plain bearing. Available in sealed, shielded, metal, non-metal and open versions.

Protect your actuators and couplings from contaminants with our offering of boots and bellows. Available in round and rectangular shapes.

Shaft collars have extremely diverse applications and fall into three main categories, positioners, spacers and limiters. Reid Supply has all the main types from one-piece, two-piece, hinged, set screw aand self-locking shaft collars that will fit most shaft types from round to keyed, threaded or even a support rail.

Flexible couplings allow for some misalignment but rotational speed may be slightly compromised. Available as both assemblies and individual components (hubs, sleeves, halves and spiders).

These idler shafts are hardened and ground for maximum idler life. To ensure maximum rigidity, they are shouldered and threaded into units and locked with a set screw.

A keyed shaft works in unison with a rotating machine element to transmit torque to power transmission components. Available in various key sizes and diameters.

Mounted bearings and housings with rolling bearings support a rotating shaft, which can be bolted on a machine frame or any other substurcture. There is no need to precisely machine a bearing housing in a surrounding casing. This makes these solutions cost-efficient and easy to use, while providing full rolling bearing performance.

Roller bearings can offer higher load capacities than ball bearings by virtue of their line contact versus point contact (used in ball bearings). These bearings can be utilized for general use and within engine connecting rods.

Available in polymer and metal. Suitable for rotary and oscillating motion. While the polymer rod ends feature self lubrication, the metal ones combine high strength with low cost.

Featuring adjustable flange, adjustable angle and adjustable screw types. These components increase the life of the drive and can be mounted in tight areas where space is limited.

Thrust bearings are designed for moderate speeds and fairly high loads. Reid Supply also offers economical nylon ball retainers and cylindrical rollers.

Turntable bearings are ideal for swivel displays, welding tables, industrial assemblies. May be mounted using the recommended bolts or welded directly to the fixture.

V-belt pulleys offer an effective way to transmit power in applications where linear sliding systems aren't viable. Various diameters to choose from. Available in ball and needle bearing styles.
