ABSTRACT:
A self-lubricating bearing suitable for marine applications, such as supporting hatch covers, has a bearing surface defined by a flexible woven pad. This woven pad is draped over a pillow plate and captured in position. To ensure that there will be a low friction interface between the pillow plate and the load supported on the bearing if the woven pad is severely damaged or lost, the pillow plate is designed to present a surface having a coefficient of friction lower than a metal-to-metal interface to the load.
