FAQs:
What are the key advantages of using full zirconia ceramic bearings over traditional steel bearings?
Full zirconia ceramic bearings offer exceptional corrosion resistance against strong acids and alkalis, electrical insulation to prevent pitting from VFD drives, non-magnetic properties, and are 45% lighter than steel with high wear resistance, solving common failures of steel bearings in harsh conditions.
In which applications are these 6004 and 6005 ceramic bearings most suitable?
These bearings are ideal for chemical and plating equipment, food and pharmaceutical machinery, variable frequency drive motors, semiconductor manufacturing, precision instruments, medical devices, and high-temperature or vacuum environments due to their corrosion resistance, non-magnetic nature, and lubricant-free operation.
How does the PTFE cage contribute to the bearing's performance?
The PTFE cage provides superior self-lubrication with the lowest coefficient of friction, excellent chemical resistance matching zirconia, and a non-stick surface capable of operating from -200°C to +250°C, resulting in very low friction and wear in dry or boundary lubrication states.
What precision grades and dimensions are available for these ceramic bearings?
The 6004 and 6005 full zirconia ceramic bearings are manufactured to international standard 6201 dimensions and are available in P6 and P5 precision grades, ensuring high performance and consistency for demanding applications.
