Bearings

Bearings reduce friction between moving parts and support radial and axial loads. Critical for rotating equipment reliability and efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I determine bearing size for my application?

Calculate required load rating based on radial and axial forces, then select a bearing with appropriate dynamic load rating (C) for desired L10 life. Consider shaft diameter constraints and speed limitations.

What is the difference between sealed and shielded bearings?

Sealed bearings (2RS) have rubber contact seals providing better contamination exclusion but higher friction. Shielded bearings (ZZ) have non-contact metal shields allowing higher speeds but less protection.
