Thin Section (Ribbed) Bearings are extremely precise and optimally designed bearings that contribute to reducing the size of robots, gimbal systems, construction equipment, and industrial machines, saving weight and reducing torque loss.

Features:

They provide low friction, highly efficient power transmission, and smooth rotational performance.
They deliver high performance under shock loads and continuous heavy loads.
They are robust bearings that offer long life and high reliability. Reliability, sustainability, and efficiency are important for all industries, and to meet these requirements, Akar Rulman supplies bearings that provide both long life and high reliability.
Manufactured with the most advanced materials, these bearings have significantly increased load carrying capacities and extended service lives.
In the Thin Section (Ribbed) Bearings group, Akar Rulman, as the distributor of the RBC, SSB, and TIMKEN brands, is able to meet all the needs of its customers.

With these strong brands, Akar Rulman enables you to obtain thin-section ball bearings that include many lubrication options depending on the application requirements. Greases designed for high speed, low torque, moisture resistance, high temperature, and oscillatory movement can be provided. Dry film application is also among the optional lubrication choices.

In particular, RBC thin-section ball bearings can be customized to meet the challenging requirements of your application. RBC has manufactured thin-section ball bearings from SAE 440C stainless steel to provide corrosion resistance. As an alternative to CRES rings, the entire surface of the rings can be coated with nodular thin dense chromium (TDC). This coating, which complies with AMS 2438, provides a molecular bond that does not peel, flake, or separate from the base material. Special RBC thin-section ball bearings are manufactured from 300 series stainless steel, 17-4PH, and other metals. Some of the special ball materials include CRES 440C, 300 series stainless steel, silicon nitride, and M50 steel.

The designs of thin-section bearings save weight, create space, increase design flexibility, and provide excellent operational accuracy. These bearings, which can meet the most challenging requirements, are commonly used in high-tech applications such as aviation, medical systems, robotics, astronomical instrumentation, and machine tools.

Save weight, create space, reduce friction, increase design flexibility, and achieve excellent operational accuracy.
