It is mainly used for high-speed machinery such as turbo gearboxes, industrial turbines and turbo compressors.
The bearing consists of a series of pads, each of which tilts freely, so that a fluid film forms itself to accommodate the balance of loads between the pads and misalignment or deformation of the collar.
Pads can be made of copper or brass.
