  1. POT PTFE Bearing

  2. Introduction • Bridges play a crucial role in our transportation systems, connecting communities and facilitating the movement of people and goods. However, for a bridge to be safe and withstand seismic activity, it needs reliable and innovative structural elements. One such element is the POT (Pot Type) PTFE bearing offered by Deevin Seismic Systems Pvt. Ltd. In this blog post, you will learn how POT PTFE bearings can improve bridge safety in simple, easy-to-understand language.

  3. Understanding POT PTFE bearings • A POT PTFE bearing is an important component in bridge construction. It acts as a connection between the bridge superstructure and substructure, providing a flexible interface that allows for controlled movement under various loading conditions, including seismic events. • Unlike conventional bearings, POT PTFE bearings consist of a steel piston embedded in a reinforced concrete beam and a spherical PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) disc in between. This disc serves as a sliding surface, reduces friction, and enables frictionless movement in several directions. By using PTFE, a non-metallic material with low friction, POT-PTFE bearings are very effective in absorbing vibrations and seismic forces during vertical and horizontal movements.

  4. The main advantages of POT PTFE bearings • Seismic resistance: POT's PTFE bearings are specifically designed to resist seismic activity to ensure the safety and integrity of bridges during earthquakes and other ground movements. The flexibility and damping properties of PTFE help to absorb and dissipate seismic forces. • Reduced maintenance: By allowing controlled movement and minimizing the transmission of vibrations to the bridge structure, POT PTFE bearings help extend the life of bridges while reducing the need for frequent maintenance and repair. • Increased safety: The ability of POT PTFE bearings to accommodate various directional movements ensures the stability and safety of the bridge under changing loads and environmental conditions. • Cost-effective: The durability and long-term performance of POT PTFE bearings result in a cost-effective solution for bridge construction and maintenance, as they require minimal maintenance and replacement.
