Why are bearings important?
Bearings reduce the need for parts to be replaced due to common problems like friction. Different kind of bearings of different sizes and designs are used where appropriate for whatever is needed. We specialise in frequently used, everyday bearings as well as top performance.
Deep Groove Ball Bearings
Our selection of deep groove ball bearings make up our most popular product range. These are extremely versatile, being used for simple and complex designs. They’re self retaining bearings with solid outer and inner rings as well as ball and cage assemblies. They’re simple, robust and effective. We offer ours as standard in both open rubber sealed (2RS) and metal shielded (ZZ) designs. We also provide these in a “loose” internal clearance, suffixed with C3. These bearings can support axial and radial forces from both directions.
Rod End Bearings
Rod end bearings are ideal for autosport purposes. Available in both self-lubricating and maintenance-free options, they’re a very popular choice in this area. Rod end bearings often have a mild steel corrosion resistant body, with a hardened chrome steel ball. As with every style of product we stock the biggest and best rod end bearing manufacturers like Aurora, Nachi, Fluro, IKO, and FAG.
Spherical Plain Bearings
Spherical plain bearings are ultra high performance, stainless steel bearings featuring an inner ring with a sphere convex outside surface. The outer ring has a sphere but concave surface inside. These types of bearings are ideal for arrangements with tricky alignment movements. Typical uses could include where oscillating or recurrent tilting movements must be permitted at slow sliding speeds. Still unsure? Give us a call! Our team are always striving to get the right products out to our customers.
Needle Roller Bearings
A needle roller bearing is a unique type of bearing which uses cylindrical rollers. They have a high load carrying capacity, but can still operate in places where bearing arrangements have limited radial space. In autosport they’re often used in rocker arm pivots, pumps, compressors and transmissions.
High Performance Lithium Ion Phosphate Batteries
Our batteries are far superior to standard lithium ion batteries. They’re ideal for high power applications such as motorsport, as the performance of these batteries is maintained for far longer than typical alternatives which gradually lose voltage output over time. A lot of these batteries can operate in extremely high temperatures, can fully charge in only 15 minutes and have a very long lifespan. They’re also one of the safest battery options available. To compete in a competitive environment, you need every advantage possible and these batteries offer that in every area.
