productCast iron solutions
Metallized Carbon Corporation supplies standard, cast iron pillow blocks and flange blocks with self-lubricating, carbon-graphite bearing inserts for applications where oil/grease lubrication cannot be used. These bearing assemblies provide low friction and long, maintenance-free, wear life in very high temperature applications.
productExtremely low friction
The new drylin double hybrid roller linear bearings from igus are designed to give extremely low friction. The technology is suitable for use in manually operated applications such as machine guards, door adjustments and furniture.
productOil-free pure refrigerant lubricated bearings
SKF has announced the availability of its new pure refrigerant lubricated bearings, a special oil-free solution for direct drive centrifugal compressors in chillers that use low-viscosity refrigerant as the bearing lubricant.
productTwo-in-one bearing lubricator
Schaeffler has launched a two-point lubricator for rolling bearings. The system provides two separate lubrication points that can be individually adjusted to supply bearings with varying lubricant volumes.
productAerospace role
UTC Aerospace Systems (UTAS) supplies thrust reversing actuator systems for the Airbus A350 XWB and primary flight control actuation systems for the Airbus A380. Both systems rely on super precision bearings from The Barden Corporation (UK) Limited, part of the Schaeffler Group’s aerospace division
productHigh performance toroidal rolling bearings
Precision bearing manufacturer Schaeffler (UK) has launched a range of high performance toroidal rolling bearings with angular adjustment capability, which provide high operational reliability, even under heavy loads.
productInduction heater for large bearings
SKF has introduced a new induction heater – the TIH L33. This product is the smallest in the TIH L series and is capable of heating large rolling bearings weighing up to 700kg.
