Happy Halloween from the Free-Flex® Pivots team! We hope everyone gets their fair share of
treats (and hopefully a few good tricks) this spooky season.
When people think scary they usually think Jason and Freddie, but for engineers there is
something even more terrifying: having your design capability limited by a traditional bearing.
Whether it be because of the constant need for lubrication or fatigue failures causing system
disruptions, engineers know bearings can be a weak spot in any design.
That’s where the Riverhawk Free-Flex® Pivot comes in. Our flexure is designed to not only carry
the load of a traditional bearing, but do it without the need for any sort of lubrication. Our parts
are frictionless and stiction free, and even have infinite life capability, meaning they will never
need to be replaced.
Stop falling for the “trick” traditional bearings are playing on you, and come to the sweet side of
the bearing world and sink your teeth into the “treat” that is the Free-Flex® pivot.
