We have an extensive bearing selection that is compatible with many different types of vehicles. Perhaps you need a bearing ball mandrel for use with your V-belt, or a bearing cap to keep the bearing secured into place. We also carry a bearing end cap supply which can help to reduce any moisture that gets caught inside bearings. Look at bearing heaters to make precise measurements when fitting larger applications. For any additional bearing parts, please view our selection of bearing withdrawal sleeves and bearing lockwashers.
Frequently Asked Questions
A bearing spacer is a thin, cylindrical component used to maintain proper spacing between bearings on a shaft. Its primary function is to ensure even load distribution, prevent excessive bearing wear, and enhance the overall efficiency and longevity of the bearing system.
A bearing lock nut is essential for securing bearings onto a shaft securely. It prevents the bearing from slipping or rotating unintentionally due to vibration or other forces. Additionally, bearing lock nuts ensure the proper preload and adjustment of the bearing within its housing.
Bearing adapters serve as intermediaries between bearings and shafts with different dimensions. They allow for easy mounting of bearings, accommodate variations in shaft diameters, and simplify the installation process. Adapters can also reduce vibration and noise levels by providing a precise fit between the bearing and shaft.
Bearing isolators are vibration-damping devices placed between the bearing and its housing. They effectively absorb shock and vibrations, reducing the transmission of harmful forces to the bearing. By minimizing vibration, isolators extend bearing life, improve system reliability, and enhance overall machine performance.
