For pivot points that need to oscillate and self-align, the SKF GEH TXE-2LS radial spherical plain bearing is a common choice. Its sliding contact surfaces and double lip seals handle radial loads and misalignment while keeping lubricant in and contaminants out. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this series and can help you match the bore size and mounting style to your application.
Reading the code helps you order correctly. GEH identifies a radial spherical plain bearing series with metric dimensions and a spherical inner ring. The number that follows is the bore diameter in millimeters. TXE tells you the sliding surfaces are treated steel running against a PTFE cage reinforced with glass fiber, a combination that lowers maintenance needs. The -2LS suffix means there is a lip seal on each side, so grease stays in and dust and water are blocked.
You will find these bearings in equipment where parts tilt or move back and forth: hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders, steering and suspension linkages, robot arms, presses, earthmoving machines, cranes and conveyors. They also appear in agricultural implements, mining and steel operations, process plants, lifting gear and boat steering. Because they take combined radial and axial loads, they work well at articulation points.
When selecting a GEH TXE-2LS, start with the bore diameter, then consider the load type (radial, axial or combined) and the oscillation angle you need. The -2LS seal needs a clean, burr-free contact surface. In dirty or wet areas, inspect the seal lips regularly and refresh the lubrication. Mounting can be by housing fit or with a retaining ring, depending on the design. Align the shaft and support carefully to avoid side forces that cut service life. The bearing comes pre-lubricated; for relubrication intervals, follow the manufacturer's instructions.
These bearings interchange with other brands that use the same dimensional designation and sealing arrangement. If you are replacing one, confirm that bore diameter, width and outside diameter match, and that the TXE-2LS suffix is present when you need the PTFE cage and double sealing. A single-sealed bearing may replace a double-sealed one if space permits, but the reverse requires checking contamination risk. Always verify tolerances and radial clearance for compatibility.

Frequently asked questions
- What does TXE-2LS indicate on a GEH spherical plain bearing?
- TXE refers to a PTFE cage reinforced with glass fiber and treated steel sliding surfaces, which reduces maintenance. -2LS means double lip sealing, one on each side, to retain grease and block contaminants. Together they identify a sealed, low-maintenance bearing.
- How do I pick the right bore diameter?
- The number in the designation (for example, 25, 35, 40, 70) is the bore diameter in millimeters. Measure the shaft or pin where the bearing mounts and match that number. If unsure, send us the dimensions and load details.
- What should I check during mounting?
- Make sure the housing and shaft are clean and free of burrs. Align the parts correctly to prevent lateral forces. The -2LS seal must seat properly to avoid damage. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for fit and initial lubrication.
