What You Need To Know About Bearings

A bearing is an essential component used in automobiles, heavy machinery, various electronic items, and even sporting equipment. It is very important that proper maintenance is given to these components because if something goes wrong with them, all these pieces of machinery or equipment will certainly not be able to function effectively.

Bearings come in many different sizes and types. And so, if you are looking for a specific type of bearing either for your car or for your sports equipment, it is recommended to just bring the sample to the store so the sales person can give you the exact same type you are looking for.

The most common types of bearing available today are the following:
- Plain bearing
- Rolling-element bearing
- Jewel bearing
- Fluid bearing
- Magnetic bearing
- Flexure bearing

There are also other types of bearing not listed above but those bearings are only used for very specific purposes in certain high end machines.
