1.What is a ball bearing？

A ball bearing is a type of rolling-element bearing that uses balls to maintain the separation between the bearing races.
The purpose of a ball bearing is to reduce rotational friction and support radial and axial loads. It achieves this by using at least two races to contain the balls and transmit the loads through the balls. In most applications, one race is stationary and the other is attached to the rotating assembly (e.g., a hub or shaft). As one of the bearing races rotates it causes the balls to rotate as well. Because the balls are rolling they have a much lower coefficient of friction than if two flat surfaces were sliding against each other.
Ball bearings tend to have lower load capacity for their size than other kinds of rolling-element bearings due to the smaller contact area between the balls and races. However, they can tolerate some misalignment of the inner and outer races.

Always a Pre-production Sample Before Mass Production;Always Final Inspection Before Shipment.
 

3.How do different steel plain ball bearing designs, such as deep groove, angular contact, or thrust bearings, cater to specific applications?

Deep groove steel plain ball bearing: Deep groove ball bearings are the most common type. They can handle both radial and axial loads. Angular contact ball bearings: Angular contact ball bearings have higher than average internal axial clearance. They can handle axial loads in one direction and moderate radial loads.
 

4.Can steel plain ball bearing be used in both vertical and horizontal orientations?

Sleeve Bearings: Sleeve bearings, also known as plain bearings, employ a simple yet effective mechanism. A cylindrical sleeve separates the rotating shaft from the stationary portion of the bearing, reducing friction and enabling smooth rotation. Sleeve bearings are characterized by their quiet operation, cost-effectiveness, and suitability for horizontal mounting orientations.
Ball Bearings: Ball bearings introduce small metal balls between the moving parts, providing enhanced durability and reduced friction. This design allows for smoother and more efficient rotation, making ball bearings well-suited for high-performance applications and vertical installations.
 

5.How do sealed steel plain ball bearing prevent the ingress of contaminants and extend the bearing's service life?

Contact seals are a type of seal where the sealing lip physically touches the inner raceway of the steel plain ball bearing. They create a narrow line or zone of contact that forms a barrier to prevent the escape of lubricants and the ingress of contaminants. Because the seal keeps dirt and other contaminants out, it can offer a longer operating life of the bearing or prevent premature bearing failure. Sealed bearings can be considered lubricated for life, which eliminates the need for a relubrication process.
 

6.Are there steel plain ball bearing designed for extreme temperature environments, such as cryogenic or furnace applications?

High temperature steel plain ball bearing use specialized lubricants to stand up to high temperatures. Grease-packed bearings are pre-filled with fluorine grease for high temperatures, while YS and SJ bearings use molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) solid lubricant to withstand temperatures up to 350°C and 400°C respectively.
 

7.As a steel plain ball bearing manufacturer,Your product certifications?

ISO9001:2015 certificate,ISO 9001 Certification,CE-stator,etc.
 

8.What are the standard sizes and dimensions of steel plain ball bearing?

steel plain ball bearing size charts are widely available, and can be used to find the measurements of a specific bearing. Series 6200 and 6300 are the most commonly used, and typically range from 10 x 30 x 9 mm (. 394 x 1.181 x . 354 in) to 150 x 320 x 65 mm (5.906 x 12.598 x 2.559 in).
 

9.As a steel plain ball bearing manufacturer,What is your payment method?

We accept T/T, PAYPAL or Western Union, credit card or via ALIBABA Assurance order.
 

10.How do manufacturers address concerns related to bearing noise and vibration in sensitive equipment?

From a steel plain ball bearing manufacturing perspective, a low noise or vibration rating is achieved by paying attention to the surface finish of the raceways and balls, their roundness, and selecting the correct cage design. Finely filtered low noise greases can also be used to reduce vibrations.
