No Need To Remove Shaft For
Bearing Change With Duramax
Demountable Bearings
Easily replaceable, demountable rubber stave bearings are now available from the Duramax
Marine Division of The Johnson Rubber Com- pany.
The individual staves of Duramax demount- able bearings can be assembled or replaced with- out shaft withdrawal. These keystone-sided, molded rubber staves slide into place without hindrance and can be removed as easily. Ship- builders and owners will benefit from this time saving feature since Duramax demountable bearings can cut the cost of bearing inspection and replacement by about one-half.
Other bearings Duramax offers include metal backed stave bearings, with individually re- placeable staves to support extreme shaft loads, and Duramax sleeve and flanged bearings, which feature specially formulated nitrile rub- ber securely bonded to metallic or nonmetallic shells.

Unaflex Introduces New
Molded Expansion Joints —Literature Available
Unaflex Rubber Corporation has announced the availability of their Unasphere precision molded expansion joints. Identified as Style 800, this line is available in sizes ranging from 2 inches to 12 inches in diameter.
Molded of neoprene and nylon, these units require less force for movement than conven- tional joints, allowing maximum deflection, elongation and compression. They are for use in a broad range of modern high-pressure and tem- perature piping systems to help eliminate noise and vibration and take up pipe expansion and contraction. Each Unasphere comes with align- able floating steel flanges. Spherical design pro- vides an inherently stronger configuration that allows pressure to exert force evenly in all direc- tions and reduce turbulence.
Literature is available on the Unasphere line.
