Produkt Comparison


Ceramic balls:

Ceramic balls are our speciality, and here are just some of the advantages they offer over steel:

  • 70 % less thermal expansion
  • 60 % lower density
  • 50 % higher e-module
  • reduced centrifugal force
  • higher power-plant mounting rigidity
  • less friction
  • corrosion resistance
  • thermal-shock resistance
  • higher hardness and resistance
  • resistant to strong pressure
  • electrically isolating
  • unmagnetic
  • considerably longer durability

Special synthetic ball bearings with ceramic balls

Synthetic ball bearings with ceramic balls are produced by means of a special procedure. Customized ball bearings’ fabrication made of special synthetic material with special balls =

  • quality improvement
  • longer durability
  • high dimensional stability
  • big advantage over steel due to specific characteristics such as heat, cold, dampness, bases, acids etc.

Special product solid ceramics ball bearings:

There are only a few providers of solid ceramics ball bearings in the world. Here are some of the outstanding characteristics which set this material apart:

  • heat-resistant (up to 1,000 Grad °C)
  • resistant to acids, water, bases, gas
  • non-corroding, non-magnetic, electrically isolating
  • non-lubricant applicable
  • up to 40% lighter than hybrid or steel bearings
  • multifunctional
