Collectively, these products form the S & S Bearing ranges now available in the UK through Blue Diamond.
Although a wide range of bearing types and sizes is offered in the S & S range, it is unlikely that many will be purchased as standard off-the-shelf components. This fact is balanced by a willingness to customise products to suit customer needs exactly; to match formats, materials, tolerances and colours required.
Outer casings can be added, to form wheels, pulleys for wire and rope applications, and in all cases Blue Diamond is equipped to build the bearing into a complete subassembly for straight forward incorporation into an OEM product.
Apart from all-steel ball bearing assemblies, Blue Diamond offers a vast selection based on high specification polymers, with or without metal ball retainers. Such elements are popular anywhere that low friction motion is desired.
Here is the opportunity for OEMs to upgrade from plain plastic sliding elements whose capability soon tails off, to a neatly packaged and more sophisticated (but still inexpensive) rolling element solution with long lasting performance. |
