Hybrid Ceramic Bearings

Hybrid ceramic bearings use steel rings and ceramic (usually silicon nitride) balls. Hybrid ceramic bearings can achieve higher speeds, greater accuracies, and have a longer service life than steel bearings which is why hybrid bearings are finding increased usage in a wide variety of engineered applications today.

The following are the basic properties of Hybrid bearings:

  • 1 Good thermal insulation
  • 2 Low thermal conductivity
  • 3 Resistance to corrosion and acids except HF acid
  • 4 Medium friction (HV>1400): Rotation speed increased from 30 to 170% compared to regular steel bearings
  • 5 Avoid water vapor as it breaks Yttria
  • 6 Life time is 50% more than regular steel bearings.

Hybrid Ceramic Bearing Solutions For Industry

Spindle Bearings
Super precision and spindle bearings are high-precision bearings that are designed for use in machine-tool spindles and other precision applications. Most super precision bearings and spindle bearings carry a high quality-rating such as ABEC-7 or ABEC-9, and run coolly and smoothly at high speeds.

Stainless Steel Hybrid Ceramic Bearings

Stainless Steel Ball Bearings with Ceramic Balls. It is specifically designed to provide superior corrosion resistance when compared to conventional type 440C stainless or steel bearings. Ceramic Balls offers a reduced friction bearing that can run without lubrication in slow to moderate speeds and loads.
Ceramic Balls
Ceramic balls are spherical, rolling elements that provide higher stiffness, lower thermal expansion, lighter weight, increased corrosion resistance, and higher electrical resistance than steel balls.
