The right ball bearing for all areas

Many applications in mechanical engineering and parts manufacturing require components that connect fixed and moving elements and components with each other. Whether radial or axial loads, bearings are required wherever rotary movements occur.

Ball bearings in all variants

There are various types and specifications of bearings. The ball bearing is one of the most widely used terms in this field. Ball bearing has become a generic term for various bearing types, such as spherical roller bearings, cylindrical roller bearings, needle roller bearings, track rollers, spindle bearings, etc. A ball bearing is a subtype of the actual generic term rolling bearing.

We briefly present the various possible solutions for your individual requirements on this page so that you can immediately recognize which type of bearing is the right choice for your requirements.

So that you immediately have all the important information for your selection, you will find information and tips on the questions most frequently asked by our customers directly on this page!

Ball bearings from FUD

Bearings are constructed in such a way that an inner ring and an outer ring are each firmly connected to one of the components to be connected. In order to enable the two components to move with as little resistance as possible, there are movable elements between these two fixed rings that enable the movement.

In a ball bearing, it is balls that are held by a roller bearing cage and therefore enable movement. To reduce friction, there are various lubrication options, such as special rolling bearing greases and rolling bearing oils. The use of rolling bearing cages can also be dispensed with in order to increase the load ratings.

The use of a high-quality ball bearing significantly reduces the rotational resistance and therefore wear and heat generation. This increases the efficiency and longevity of a component with a high-quality ball bearing.

" Tips

Always ask our specialist advisors for the ideal solution for your individual requirements, as it is not always guaranteed that the ball bearing you want to replace is already the optimum choice

In addition to standard and universal bearings, e.g. in sizes from 8 mm to 7 meters inside diameter, we offer ball bearings in almost any technically feasible size. We are also very experienced in individual project planning in order to manufacture ball bearings specifically according to your parameters

In addition to the well-known brand bearings, you can also check ball bearings from our own brand FUD.

When selecting ball bearings, but also other bearing types, factors such as:

  • Dimensions of the attachments
  • the maximum and minimum rotation
  • the load ratings acting statically and dynamically on the ball bearing
  • the axial and/or radial load
  • the ambient conditions, e.g. temperature, dirt, dust, vapors, etc. in which the ball bearing is to operate

There are many other factors, such as vibrations. We would be happy to advise you!

All these individual factors are selected in the right balance with the aim of ensuring that the installed ball bearing is suitable for the application and thus achieves the longest possible service life.

Our experience with our customers has shown that the durability of the ball bearings we supply is particularly important.

Production according to your requirements

Due to the complexity of the requirements placed on ball bearings in terms of dimensions, load and many other influencing factors, we already have a large number of standard bearings available for you.

From small customizations and changes to materials and dimensions to completely new developments of ball bearings or entire assemblies

Nevertheless, there are always inquiries whose requirements are not met by a standard bearing. In these cases, we analyze your needs individually and configure the ideal ball bearing for you. The options range from minor customization, such as changing the oil in which the rollers run, to changing the materials and dimensions, through to a completely new development of a ball bearing or even the entire assembly.

Important objectives of such individualization can arise when, for example, particularly high speeds, loads and/or difficult installation conditions/environmental conditions are present.

Just like the individualization of a bearing itself, we also develop components for your individual requirements in which, for example, ball bearings are part of the assembly.
