The Multiquip 1503180130 Sleeve Bearing (18Dx20Dx20) is a genuine OEM component designed for GB43SC, GBC, GBCE, GBC CANADA, GB43LED, GB43LED CSA, and GBC8LED (CSA) balloon light systems. As a direct OEM replacement, this bearing is sourced to the same specification as the original, ensuring correct dimensional fit within the assembly. DHS Equipment supplies this part with verified part number accuracy so you can order with confidence and get your equipment back in service without second-guessing compatibility.
Key Features
- OEM-Spec Bore and Wall Dimensions — Manufactured to the 18mm inner diameter, 20mm outer diameter, and 20mm length spec of the original, maintaining correct clearance and load distribution within the bearing housing.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting geometry, allowing direct installation into the balloon light mast or rotation assembly without reworking the housing bore.
- Broad Balloon Light Fitment — Confirmed for GB43SC, GBC, GBCE, GBC CANADA, GB43LED, GB43LED CSA, and GBC8LED (CSA) series balloon lighting systems.
- Smooth Rotational Support — A correctly fitted sleeve bearing keeps the rotating shaft centered and reduces friction, preventing shaft wobble, uneven wear, and premature failure of adjacent components.
- Genuine Multiquip OEM Part — Supplied under part number 1503180130 directly from the Multiquip OEM supply chain, meaning materials and tolerances match what the machine was built with.
A sleeve bearing supports a rotating or oscillating shaft by providing a low-friction cylindrical surface between the shaft and its housing. In balloon light systems, sleeve bearings are typically found in mast elevation mechanisms or rotational pivot points where controlled, smooth movement is essential for safe operation and even light distribution. When a sleeve bearing wears down or fails, the shaft loses its centered support, leading to vibration, increased play, accelerated wear on the shaft and housing, and eventual mechanical failure of the assembly. Replacing the bearing at the first sign of wear keeps the mechanism operating smoothly and protects the surrounding components from secondary damage.
