The CeramicSpeed Bearings can be used as means of optimisation within a wide range of issues. Here you will find the series Insulate (ac motors etc.), Xtreme (contaminated environments) and Corrotec (stainless for food processing etc.).
They are well suited for areas with a lot of contamination from water, dust, dirt and metal, whether it is about bearings with many starts/stops, or where there is a need for fast acceleration. In harsh environments with insufficient lubrication, high temperature, vibrations, bearing stray current and other forces as such, you will find that CeramicSpeed Bearings have a much longer service life and thus a better overall economy.
Ceramic bearings last 4-8 times longer than traditional bearings made from steel. The energy consumption is up to 70 % lower. The operating temperature in a ceramic hybrid bearing is 14-47 °C lower than in standard bearings.
Hybrid bearings are perfect in electric motors and other enviroments where it is necessary to prevent stray currents from passing through the bearing. The ceramic balls are nonconductive and have an insulating ability of at least 2,5 kV. Contact us for specific details regarding the insulating ability of larger bearings.
Additionally, LongLife Insulate Bearings reduce energy loss in the bearings by 70 %
