Ball Bearings
Open bearings dissipate heat more efficiently than shielded and sealed bearings.
Shielded bearings block out dust and other contaminants, but do not dissipate heat as efficiently as open bearings.

Permanently Lubricated Ball Bearings

A solid polymer lubricant surrounds the balls, eliminating the need for additional lubrication. Because it's solid, the lubricant blocks out water and dust, extending the life of the bearing.

Stainless Steel Ball Bearings
Bearings are 440C stainless steel for good corrosion resistance.
Sealed bearings block out dust and other contaminants better than open and shielded bearings, but retain the most heat.

Ultra-Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel Ball Bearings

These 316 stainless steel bearings are more corrosion resistant than our other stainless steel bearings, but they have a lower load capacity.

Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings

Startup friction causes these bearings to release a thin layer of oil on the bearing’s surface. They are also known as Oilite® bearings.
Note: Dynamic load capacity is the maximum load a bearing can withstand at a given shaft speed. If your application’s load and speed requirements are below the values listed, the bearing will work.

Needle-Roller Bearings

Also known as drawn-cup roller bearings, these are our thinnest roller bearings. The outer ring is drawn out to form a lip that holds the bearing together. Bearings take on the shape of their housing and may be oblong prior to installation.
Open bearings dissipate heat more efficiently than sealed bearings.
