Thin Section Ball Bearing

Thin section ball bearing (also known as equal cross-section bearings) are specially designed bearings characterized by a constant cross-section size over the entire range of bearing diameters. These bearings are typically used in applications where space

Structural features

Thin-Walled Design: The wall thickness of the bearing with equal section is relatively thin, which makes the gap between the outer and inner diameter of the bearing very small, maintaining the lightness of the entire bearing.

Constant Cross-Section: The cross-section height of the bearing remains the same regardless of the change in diameter.

Lightweight Materials: Lightweight, high-strength materials, such as high-grade alloy steels or specific synthetic materials, are often used to reduce weight and increase load capacity.

Variety of Design Forms: Including deep groove ball bearings, four-point contact ball bearings and angular contact ball bearings, to meet different load and motion needs.

Application environment

Aerospace: Used in critical components of satellites, spacecraft, and aircraft, applications that require bearings that are lightweight and space-tight.

Robotics: For robot joints and other robotic arm components that require high-precision and high-performance bearings.

Medical Equipment: Surgical robots and medical scanning equipment require small and reliable bearings.

Precision Instruments: In instruments and equipment that require high-precision control and small size bearings, such as optical instruments and precision measuring equipment.

Design features

High Performance: Despite the small cross-section, the design ensures sufficient load capacity and rigidity to meet high performance requirements.

Compact: Due to its thin-walled and equal-cross-sectional characteristics, it is suitable for compact mechanical structures.

Lightweight: The use of high-strength, lightweight materials to reduce overall weight is especially important for applications where mobility and fuel efficiency are critical.

Versatility: Accommodates different bearing design needs and can withstand radial loads, axial loads, or a combination of both.
