What are the characteristics of stainless steel bearings?

A. Stainless steel bearing characteristics

    The bearing ring and rolling element material are vacuum-quenched and tempered using AISI SUS440C stainless steel (domestic code: 9Cr18Mo, 9Cr18). The frame material of the cage and seal ring is made of AISI304 stainless steel (domestic code: 1Cr18). Compared with ordinary bearing steel, stainless steel bearings have stronger rust and corrosion resistance. Choose suitable lubricants, dustproof covers, etc., and can be used in the environment of -60 ° C ~ +300 ° C. Stainless steel bearings are widely used in food processing, medical equipment, and pharmaceutical machinery due to their high mechanical strength and load capacity.

B. Stainless steel bearing advantages

1. Excellent corrosion resistance: stainless steel bearings are not easy to rust and have strong corrosion resistance.

2, washable: stainless steel bearings can be washed down without having to re-lubricate to prevent rusting punishment.

3, can run on the liquid: due to the materials used, we can run the bearings and housings in the liquid.

4, the depletion speed is slow: AISI 316 stainless steel, no oil or grease anti-corrosion protection. Therefore, if the speed and load are low, there is no need to lubricate.

5. Hygiene: Stainless steel is naturally clean and non-corrosive.

6. High heat resistance: Stainless steel bearings are equipped with high temperature polymer cages or cages that are not in a complete complementary structure and can operate at higher temperatures ranging from 180°F to 1000°F. (Need to be equipped with high temperature grease)

C.The main purpose

      The main application fields of stainless steel bearings are: medical equipment, cryogenic engineering, optical instruments, high-speed machine tools, high-speed motors, printing machinery, food processing machinery, etc.
