Grease-Free PTFE stirrer bearing designed for use under moderate vacuum applications. The bearing consists of a threaded glass adapter having an inner joint, a set of PTFE washer style bearings, a stainless steel spring, nylon alignment ring and Celcon® compression cap. The unique design of this bearing provides hours of continous vacuum operation, with a minimum of "flaking" of the PTFE bearing surfaces.
PLEASE NOTE: FOR USE ONLY WITH CG-2078 OR CG-2079 PRECISION GROUND AND POLISHED STIRRER SHAFTS.
- Chemically Resistant
- Vacuum (~5 Torr) and Pressure (~5 PSI)

NEW Chem-Vac™ PTFE stirrer bearing provides a VACUUM TIGHT FLAKE-FREE SEAL. Two versions of the bearing are available, the standard series for 2L and smaller vessel capacities and the stabilizer series that incorporates a PEEK®/PTFE stabilizing bushing that is molded to the lower portion of the inner joint. The stabilizer greatly reduces stirrer shaft whip on larger vessels. The bearing consists of a PTFE standard taper body, Glass filled polypropylene screw cap, PEEK® Compression spring, PEEK®/PTFE sleeve and a glass filled polypropylene loosening nut. The polymer blend sleeve provides a long lasting seal for use up to 500 RPM. Loosening nut above the standard taper inner joint allows easy and quick removal.
PLEASE NOTE: PTFE STIRRER SHAFTS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED FOR USE WITH THIS BEARING.
