Customized Bearings – Ceramic Ball Bearings

Ceramic Ball Bearings

NBK Ceramic Ball Bearings combine 52100 steel rings with silicon nitride (Si3N4) ceramic balls. They excel as electric insulators, offer higher speed capabilities, and outlast all-steel bearings in many applications.

We can manufacture ceramic ball bearings in all our standard sizes, including Single Row, Double Row, and Self-Aligning ball bearings. Additionally, we can use ceramic balls for all other custom bearing designs.

Advantages

  • High Wear Resistance: Ceramic materials are harder than steel, leading to less wear and longer bearing life.
  • Low Friction: Ceramic bearings have a lower friction coefficient, ensuring smoother operation and less heat generation.
  • High Temperature Tolerance: They can withstand higher temperatures without expanding or failing, making them ideal for high-temperature environments.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Ceramics are naturally resistant to corrosion, performing well in humid or chemical environments.
  • Electrical Insulation: Ceramic materials insulate against electricity, preventing electrical arcing and related damage.
  • Lightweight: Lower density reduces centrifugal force and vibration during operation.
  • Longer Lifespan: Combined benefits result in a longer lifespan compared to steel bearings, reducing replacement frequency and maintenance costs.
  • High-Speed Capability: Can operate at higher speeds without overheating or structural failure.
  • Reduced Lubrication Needs: Lower friction and high wear resistance reduce the need for frequent lubrication, extending lubricant life and reducing maintenance costs.

Applications

Ceramic ball bearings are widely used in aerospace, precision machinery, high-speed machine tools, medical equipment, motors, and generators due to these advantages.
