Industrial complexes run night and day on friction-cancelling beds of radial inserts. In Victoria, a part of Australia that relies heavily on industrial parks, the demand for these rolling components remains consistently high even though the economy is seeing some unpleasant economical fluctuations. Automotive plants may be shedding workers across the region, but industrial demands […]
The dictionary definition of the term flange describes a physical ridge or lip, a rim or collar that projects from a rolled edge. It grants a component extra strength and, at least in the case of pipes, provides a fastening plate that enables the two sections to be bound together. It’s a little different with […]
The general public can be forgiven for believing that the ball bearing is the only bearing in use today. It’s the go-to friction reducer, after all, the prevalent form taken by radial motion mechanics because the arrangement of two circular rails (races) and the smoothly rolling balls sandwiched between these rings is ingeniously efficient. Nevertheless, […]
Engineering principles gravitate toward product streamlining, to the preservation of system simplicity. Indeed, for every complex gearing mechanism, there’s a basic, reliable component that hasn’t changed its form in a century. In the case of deep groove ball bearings, it’s this straightforward design principle that keeps the evergreen product at the forefront of bearing technology. […]
