Ball Bearings

Ball bearings are the most commonly used type of bearings in the industry. These bearings are designed to handle radial and axial loads at high rotational speeds with relatively small loads. Due to their exceptional performance, ball bearings are used in a wide range of industries, such as the energy sector, mining, metallurgy, chemical, food, wood, and tobacco industries.

Advantages of ball bearings

Ball bearings are characterized by high operating speeds, long service life, and minimal maintenance requirements. The main part of this type of bearing is its rolling component – the ball, which transmits the load in contact with the outer and inner rings. These bearings are available in various types, including:

• Single-row bearings – for standard applications with lighter loads.
• Double-row bearings – for heavier loads and better stability.
• Self-aligning bearings – allowing automatic alignment.
• Angular contact bearings – for precise applications with axial loads.

Industrial applications

Ball bearings are indispensable in industrial sectors requiring high operating speeds. Their applications include various fields, such as:

• Energy sector – in energy production and distribution.
• Mining and metallurgy – ensuring durability and resistance to harsh conditions.
• Chemical and food industry – due to their reliability and easy maintenance.
