Learn MoreMechanical bearings help to reduce the friction between moving parts, proving to be a vital component in a wide variety of machines ranging from bicycles to airplanes. Bearings are a component that consists of five basic parts which include seals, balls, ball cages, races, as well as grease. Multiple balls are placed between races, which are concave surfaces. This allows the balls to rotate freely amongst one another with minimal friction (though one ball is typically fixed). The seals and ball bearing cages help to hold everything in place, while also keeping out any dirt or debris. The grease helps to protect and lubricate the entire moving system. It is important to keep in mind though that not all bearings are created equally.
