An elastomeric bearing configured for use in a rotor blade assembly is provided including an inner race, and an outer race. An outer damper portion is arranged adjacent the outer race and an inner snubber portion is arranged adjacent the inner race. A rigid transition layer is disposed between the outer damper portion and the inner snubber portion. The rigid transition layer has a generally circular cross-section except at a segment which has been removed and which defines a generally planar surface at a chord of the segment. The generally planar surface is configured to contact a surface of an adjacent component.
