Abstract

A radial bearing for transmitting a radial load, including a first radial bearing component defining a first radial bearing surface and an orientable second radial bearing component defining a second radial bearing surface. At least a portion of the first radial bearing surface is provided by a first radial bearing material. A portion of the second radial bearing surface is provided by a second radial bearing material. The first radial bearing component and the second radial bearing component interact to transmit the radial load between the first radial bearing component and the second radial bearing component at a radial load location on the second radial bearing component. The second radial bearing material is provided as the portion of the second radial bearing surface such that the second radial bearing material is concentrated at the radial load location.
