Bearing Products
Eleven families, one index: deep groove, ceramic, plastic, mounted and linear bearings, transmission parts and custom work, each with its own series, materials and option frame.
Start with the family that carries the load
A bearing choice starts with the load and the mounting, not with a code. Radial loads on a plain shaft point to the deep groove families; combined radial and axial loads point to angular contact; a bearing that must bolt down as a unit points to the mounted range; straight-line travel points to the linear families. The whole range sits in the table below, with the headline series each family is ordered by.
| Family | Go here when | Headline series or types |
|---|---|---|
| Steel Ball Bearings | A general-purpose radial bearing is needed | 6000, 6200, 6300 series |
| Angular Contact Ball Bearings | Radial and axial loads arrive together | P4 grade angular contact |
| Ceramic Ball Bearings | Corrosion, heat or insulation rules out steel | Full ceramic and hybrid ceramic |
| Rod End Bearings | A linkage end needs a threaded bearing | Male and female thread types |
| Plastic Ball Bearings | Water, washdown or clean duty excludes steel | PEEK, POM, PA66, PTFE options |
| Needle Roller Bearings | Load capacity matters more than envelope | AXK thrust, NU cylindrical, CFS cam followers |
| Mounted Bearings | The bearing must arrive as a housed unit | UCP pillow blocks, UCF flange units |
| Transmission Parts | The drive around the bearing needs parts too | Pulleys, bushings, belts, balls |
| Linear Bearings & Guides | Travel runs straight, on a shaft or a rail | LM bushings, HGH/HGW blocks |
| Sliding Roller Wheels | A door, gate or seat has to roll | Grooved and flat roller wheels |
| Custom Bearings | No standard item matches the drawing | Made-to-drawing sizes and materials |
From family overview to size table
Start at the family overview for materials and the option frame, drop to a detail page for one sub-family — stainless steel, miniature, thrust and thin-section bearings inside the steel family, for example — and use the series pages for full model tables, such as the 6200 series and 6000 series tables. Where two constructions compete, the compare pages sort the choice; where the questions sit behind the order itself — supply terms, programme quantities — the supplier and wholesale guides answer them.
- Family pages: the family, its materials and its option frame
- Detail pages: one sub-family, its range and its uses
- Series pages: full model tables, series by series
- Compare and guide pages: the decisions behind the order
From family page to inquiry
When the family and the series are settled, the inquiry needs the item list, the quantities per item and the destination market. Options that change the item — seal type, clearance, precision grade, material — belong in the same message, next to the items they apply to. For what a complete inquiry carries, work through the bearing supplier guide first, then send the list through the form on the contact page.
Send an inquiry
Work from the family table to the item list: name the families, the series and the quantities you need, and send the list through the inquiry form for a priced reply.
