ABSTRACT:
A structural bearing for example for use in supports for pipelines. The bearing comprises a center plate 21 having a PTFE bearing layer insert 22 and above this a co-operating sliding plate 23 with a stainless steel mating plate 24. The center plate 21 is located with respect to a support 25 by a retaining ring 26. Between the center plate 21 and the support 25 there is a deformable feature 27 which deforms when the bearing is subjected to an uneven load, thereby spreading the load more evenly over the support 25.
