A component of a laminated bearing assembly is for movably coupling an inner member and an outer member, the inner member having a central axis and the outer member having a bore. The component includes a laminated body disposeable within the outer member bore and having an inner radial end connectable with the inner member and an outer radial end connectable with the outer member. The body is formed of a plurality of alternating, generally arcuate elastomeric and metallic laminae nested generally about the central axis, each one of the elastomeric and metallic laminae having opposing first and second arcuate ends and inner and outer circumferential surfaces extending circumferentially between the first and second arcuate ends. Each metallic lamina has a radial thickness varying circumferentially between a first value at the first, radially-widest arcuate end and a second, lesser value at the second, radially-narrowest arcuate end.
