Automotive sector boost The Demand for Ball and Roller Bearings
Allowing for great versatility and flexibility, bearings are used in every industry that involves motion.
 
That is to say, virtually every kind of machinery or equipment — everything from household appliances and automobile parts to aerospace and defense equipment — makes use of bearings or is made with equipment containing bearings.
 
There are two primary types of bearings: roller bearings and ball bearings.
Cylinders Roller bearings use cylinders to maintain separation between moving parts. Ball bearings, on the other hand, utilize balls to separate the shifting pieces. Both roller bearings and ball bearings are designed to reduce rotational friction while supporting axial and radial loads.
 
Ball bearings operate at higher speeds than roller bearings and can handle moderate radial and axial loads. Roller bearings can achieve relatively high speeds, but are specifically designed to carry heavy radial loads.

Common Bearing Applications and Uses

Bearings are unique in that they are utilized by essentially every industry; every sector that uses machinery or involves motor mechanics employs bearings in its equipment.
Bearings are critical components in military machinery, as well as civilian machinery and equipment. And every time a person uses an appliance in their home, has a procedure done at the dentist’s office, or drives their car, bearings are in use.
Everything from cars, bicycles, blenders, dental drills, space shuttles, turnstiles, wind turbines, and gas meters makes use of these integral components.
