Ceramic Zirconia Bearing

Bearing balls zirconium dioxide is one of the most studied ceramic materials.

Ceramic zirconia bearing.

Each stabilized zirconia provides unique and specific properties that meet the demands of extreme applications found in many industries. Boasting an excellent resistance to water saltwater and many acids and alkalis it also has a very wide temperature range and is suitable for use in high vacuum applications. Zirconia is noted for its high strength toughness wear and thermal properties. A tough solid non porous ceramic material that has a tensile strength and a coefficient of thermal expansion similar to that of mild steel but with four times the compressive strength and very high thermal stability.

This is an advantage when considering shaft and housing fits for higher temperature applications. Zro2 or zirconium dioxide is a tough ceramic material with very similar expansion properties to steel. High precision zirconia ceramic abll is mainly used for valve ball full ceramic bearing measuring ball trackball fine grinding ball and also applied in the environment of high temperature corrosion anti electricity anti magnetic non lubrication etc. Zro 2 adopts a monoclinic crystal structure at room temperature and transitions to tetragonal and cubic at higher temperatures.

Ceramic bearings in zirconia for shaft sizes from 0 125 up to 1 0 see product table below for dimensions and technical drawings see products variants below for silicon nitride options zro2 or zirconium dioxide is a tough ceramic material with very similar expansion properties to steel. Typical ceramics that are used as bearing materials are silicon nitride si 3 n 4 and zirconia zro 2. Growing adoption of cloud based solutions and rising need for amalgamating health records on a single platform is anticipated to boost the market zirconia ceramic bearing ball growth. Silicon nitride is a very hard but also very light material.

As a very specific type of ball bearing knowing where to find zirconium oxide ball bearings can prove tricky especially if you are a first time buyer. Not be to be confused with hybrid ceramic bearings full ceramic bearings have ceramic balls and rings boasting harder than steel properties. Zirconia ceramics you are here. Zirconia materials are among the strongest ceramic materials stc offers.

Branded as z bearing our hanger bearings are made using nilcra zirconia. At simply bearings we re not just a leading supplier of these types of bearings but as a specialist in this field you can be assured of getting the highest quality bearings at the best price.
