Bearing factory Hybrid and Ceramic Bearings
2015-12-02Ceramic materials have been proved to be an invaluable resource when conventional bearing are unable to
do the job. Whether it is an issue with lubrication, speed or incompatibility of material, there is a ceramic or hybrid bearing capable of providing a solution.
With their unique properties ceramics can be used in a variety of applications where conventional materials reach their limits. They have been used widely throughout a host of nuclear, vacuum, cryogenic, high speed, insulating and non-magnetic applications.
Hybrid Bearings
Hybrid bearings are the ideal option when no other bearing will do. This is usually due to the fact that the type of bearing you require may be particularly specialist or may need to be made of a certain substance in order for it to work in the best way it can. Hybrid in this sense means that the ball bearing is a combination of two different types or various compounds such as different type of metals. This type of ball bearing can be used in cases where exceptional circumstances are needed for example if a ball bearing is required to be non magnetic or in cases where the ball bearing is required to be non reactive with another substance such as water or temperature – hot
or cold.

Ceramic Bearings
Ceramic bearings are also perfect for circumstances where high temperatures are an issue. Renowned for their resistance to heat, ceramic has long been used for domestic purposes due to its ability to be used in high temperatures such as cooking and baking. The substance is used in the same way for ball bearings and works more than efficiently in hot conditions. Ceramic bearings are also perfect where conventional materials do not suffice including high speed, insulating or vacuum situations where normal types of ball bearings such as metal
like iron or steel do not carry the job out well.
