A liquid-lubricated rubber bearing having a bearing member composed of resilient elastomeric bearing portions separated by longitudinal grooves is supported by rigid, non-metallic, composite backing structure of non-corrosive, non-shrinkable, non-conductive fibrous material embedded in a vulcanized synthetic rubber matrix. The fibrous material component is preferably one or more square-woven sheets of glass cords or strands. The composite backing can be a unitary cylindrical shell or, in the case of "segmental" type rubber bearings, a series of elongated strips to support the structurally separate or "segmented" bearing portions. |
