Advantages of ceramic bearings

When it comes to ceramics, everyone first thinks of tableware commonly used in homes. With the development of science and technology, the physical properties of ceramics have been applied to various industries, including the bearing industry. Here are the advantages of ceramic bearings!

First, because ceramics are scarcely resistant to corrosion, ceramic rolling bearings are suitable for operation in harsh conditions full of corrosive media.

Second, because the density of ceramic rolling balls is lower than steel, and the weight is much lighter, the centrifugal effect of the outer ring can be reduced by 40% during rotation, and the service life is greatly extended.

Third, ceramics are less affected by thermal expansion and contraction than steel, so when the bearing clearance is constant, the bearing can be allowed to work in an environment where the temperature difference changes drastically.

Fourth, because the elastic modulus of ceramics is higher than that of steel, it is not easy to deform when stressed, so it is conducive to improving the working speed and achieving higher accuracy.
