What kind of bearings are called ceramic ball bearings?

In full ceramic bearings, both the rolling elements and rings are made of ceramic.

In hybrid ceramic bearings, the rolling elements are ceramic balls (such as silicon nitride or zirconium oxide), while the rings are steel or stainless steel.

So why do some customers insist on us offering ceramic ball bearings?

So, what common industries and equipment require ceramic ball bearings? 

- Aerospace: Aircraft engines and turbochargers/superchargers; aircraft landing gear

- Automotive: High-performance vehicles; transmissions and suspension systems

- Robotics: Effectively reduces friction and improves motion precision

- Highly corrosive environments, such as various subsea projects

As for the specific bearing selection, we will provide the optimal solution based on your specific equipment requirements.
