If you're looking for ways to help your organization save money and time, then you need to check out these six bearing solutions.

At Bearings Manufacturing Company, we’re committed to providing a modified and manufactured ball and roller bearing product, focusing on supporting on-time deliveries while meeting or exceeding customers’ product expectations.

When considering ceramic vs. steel components, the application is key. The higher strength and hardness of the ceramic bearing will yield more extended wear and superior corrosion resistance.

Advancements in industrial applications and technologies require dependable machinery to keep up with the times. Standard bearings are not as reliable in extreme conditions or unique environments.

Stainless steel bearings

Bearings are designed to carry distinct load types, radial or thrust. Ball bearings are a common type of rolling-element bearing that uses balls to separate the moving parts.

Understanding the difference in the two bearing types and which is needed for specific applications is essential when trying to source suppliers.

In addition, ceramic bearings are comprised of ceramic rolling elements (balls) enclosed in a ferrous (typically steel) inner and outer race. They are superior to steel balls in many ways.
