A spherical bearing is a type of bearing designed to allow for rotational movement and angular misalignment between connected parts. It consists of an inner ring with a spherical convex outside surface and an outer ring with a correspondingly concave inside surface. This design enables the bearing to accommodate angular misalignment and rotational motion.

Rod ends, also known as spherical bearings, are a type of mechanical joint used to connect two or more components that need to move relative to each other. They are commonly used in a wide range of industrial applications, including...

Spherical bearings are crucial in applications where misalignment and rotational movement occur, providing durability and flexibility in mechanical systems.
