Non-reinforced bearing devices are best specified when the load, rotation and horizontal deflection are minimal.

The addition of internal steel plates (or laminates) increases the vertical load bearing capacity and the amount of horizonal deflection which can be accommodated by the bearing device. Laminated bearing assemblies are molded to any shape or size. The internal steel plates are vulcanize-bonded to alternating layers of elastomer during the molding process.
