At present, automotive bearings are mainly used in automobiles, motorcycles and other motor vehicles. There is a great demand for bearings in automobiles in China. Bearings are the key components in the mainly assembly of the transmission, engine, axle and so on. Although bearings are only small parts, they are closely related to the reliability, safety and comfort of the whole vehicle. The average number of bearings used for assembly and after-sale maintenance of spare parts in a car is about 80 sets. From the number of supporting bearings, deep groove ball bearings, tapered roller bearings and needle roller bearings are the main bearings, accounting for 21.32%, 34.36% and 30.42% respectively; from the size point of view, medium and large bearings are the main ones. Because the entry threshold of bearing industry is relatively low, Chinese bearing production enterprises are mainly small and medium-sized. There are more than 4000 bearing companies in the industry, of which about ...

Counterfeit products are a trap for end users and also a pain for bearing manufacturers. In order to save a bit of cost, some end users will eventually face the huge production losses caused by downtime and the additional costs of maintenance. "Save money without losing much money," the reason is obvious. One of the best examples is the  thrust tapered roller bearings   installed in the top drive of drilling rigs in the oil and gas field industry. This vital bearing ensures the operation of the whole rig and drilling operation. The cost loss caused by the failure downtime of the bearing is as high as 15,000 Euros per day on average. The money saved is not as much as the money lost. The reason is obvious. One of the best examples is the thrust tapered roller bearings installed in the top drive of drilling rigs in the oil and gas field industry. This vital bearing ensures the operation of the whole rig and drilling operation. The cost loss caused by the failure downtime of t...
