Abstract: An article, such as a swing arm for a glider chair, includes an elongated structural member made of high strength aluminum, and a pair of cast-in place preassembled bearings located in opposing ends of the structural member and facing in opposite directions. The preassembled bearings each include a first cup-shaped bearing member defining an outer depression for secure engagement by the material of the structural member and an inner ring-shaped ball race or track. The preassembled bearings each further include a second tubular bearing member defining an outer ring-shaped ball race or track and an internal passageway. Ball bearings are positioned between the first and second ring-shaped races for movably supporting the second bearing member on the first bearing member. Lubricant can be added through the passageway in the second bearing member into the area of the ball bearings for lubricating the ball bearings.
