Water lubricated rubber bearings are used from many years in ship building and other industry because of their advantages such as: long serviceable life, low coefficient of friction, long life of shaft sleeve, good vibration damping, good abrasion resistance, low maintenance required, grit particles and other abrasives are expelled through the grooves [1,2,3,4].
