Bearings for Steel & Metals Applications
bearings for Steel mills, foundries, and metal processing facilities
Common Equipment
Steel mills, foundries, and metal processing facilities
Selection Criteria
High temperature ratings, scale resistance
Compliance Notes
High temperature ratings, scale resistance
Part Types
Ball Bearings
Ball bearings use spherical rolling elements to reduce friction. Suitable for moderate radial and thrust loads at high speeds.
Ceramic Bearings
High-speed, corrosion-resistant ceramic elements
Linear Bearings
Support linear motion applications
Magnetic Bearings
Contactless support using magnetic levitation
Mounted Bearings
Pre-assembled bearing units with housings
Needle Bearings
Thin cylindrical rollers for compact radial loads
Roller Bearings
Roller bearings use cylindrical, tapered, or spherical rollers for heavy radial loads. Higher load capacity than ball bearings.
Sleeve Bearings
Sleeve bearings (bushings) provide sliding contact support. Simple design with low cost, suitable for slow speeds and oscillating motion.
Spherical Bearings
Self-aligning for misalignment compensation
Thrust Bearings
Thrust bearings support axial loads parallel to the shaft. Available in ball, roller, and sliding configurations.
