ABSTRACT:
A method of making bearings from blocks of high molecular weight plastic. The bearing is made by forming a cylindrical bore in the block and locating one or more sleeves in the block for receiving fasteners. The fasteners are provided to secure the block to a supporting member. The bearing bore is adapted to receive a shaft within the bore. The sleeve may be attached to the outer surface of the block or a plurality of sleeves may be received within one or more bores in the block. A bearing made according to the method and an apparatus for washing vehicles in which the bearing may be advantageously used are also disclosed.
