Types of Bearing
Ball Bearings
1. Deep Groove Ball Bearing
They are primarily used in machinery with shafts requiring low-friction rotation support.
2. Angular Contact Ball Bearing
They are ideally used in gearboxes, pumps, electric motors, clutches, or other high-speed applications.
3. Self-Aligning Ball Bearing
It is most commonly used in fan applications, textile segments, etc.
4. Thrust Ball Bearing
They are commonly used in automotive, marine, and aerospace applications.
Roller Bearing
1. Tapered Roller Bearing
They are used in reducers, wheels of landing gears, heavy equipment, machinery manufacturing, aerospace, etc.
2. Spherical Roller Bearing
Its common applications include gearboxes, wind turbines, material handling, pumps, fans and blowers, mining and construction equipment, etc.
3. Cylindrical Roller Bearing
They are used in many air-crafts, jet engines, electric motors, brushes of machines, turbo compressors, tachometer generators, etc.
4. Needle Roller Bearing
They are used in automobile components such as pumps, compressors, and transmissions, industrial bearings, aircraft construction equipment, & engines.
Slewing Bearing
The Mainly usage is:

Pedestal/Pillow Block Bearing
1. UCP
Applied in places with simple equipment and spare parts, such as agricultural machines, and conveying systems.
2. UCF
The offered UCF Pillow Block Bearing is extensively used in agricultural machinery, conveying equipment, and construction, to provide load support for a rotating shaft axis, etc.
3. UCFA
Suitable for applications where the direction of rotation is constant or alternating.
Linear Bearing
Linear bearings are used in machine tool applications such as sliding doors, 3D printers, and automation settings where reducing friction and guiding linear motion is needed.
Plain Bearing
Plain bearings may be used for rotational or linear applications.
Bush Bearing
Bush bearing is generally used where a requirement of high speed and maximum possibility of corroding parts.
Fluid Bearing
Fluid bearings are frequently used in high load, high speed, or high precision applications where ordinary ball bearings would have shortened life or cause high noise and vibration.
Magnetic Bearing
Magnetic bearings used in industrial machines such as pumps, compressors, turbines, and generators are appealing because they are generally more efficient, quieter, and do not require lubrication.
Flexure Bearing
Flexure bearings are used in cryocooler compressors and expanders to maintain the integrity of the clearance seal between the piston and cylinder
