Ceramic Inner Bearings

We also build ceramic bearings i e bearings with ceramic races but they are not as common because they are less durable.
Ceramic inner bearings. Mcdanel advanced ceramic technologies llc is a leader in developing and manufacturing the highest quality ceramic tubes and ceramic components. For especially problematic applications ntn offers ceramic hybrid bearings. Ceramic bearings are comprised of ceramic rolling elements balls enclosed in a ferrous typically steel inner and outer race. Steel bearings will wear out more quickly due to a number of factors.
With there combination of ceramic balls and steel inner and outer rings the hybrid ball bearings provide the user with a more durable and longer lasting product. Using conventional steel inner and outer rings silicon nitride rolling elements provide excellent electrical insulation while reducing rotating mass and improving heat dissipation. The use of hybrid ball bearings in today s industries is quickly replacing the more traditional steel ball bearings.
