Automotive Bearing


The main function of the hub bearing is to bear the weight and provide precise guidance for the rotation of the wheel hub. It bears both axial load and radial load and is a very important component. Automobile bearings are a category of bearings classified by purpose. They are a large part of the bearing industry. Their functions include keeping the shock absorber rotating with the wheel when the vehicle turns and preventing the vibration from being transmitted to the body through the shock absorber due to uneven road surface when the car is driving.

Bearing application and performance characteristics

Although the automobile bearing is a small part, it is closely related to the reliability, safety and comfort of the whole vehicle.

Bearings have an important impact on the performance of the whole vehicle. In terms of reliability, once damaged, it will affect the driving of the whole vehicle. In terms of safety, the installation position of some bearings is very important. For example, the hub bearing is to support the weight of the whole vehicle. Once a failure occurs, it will affect the safety of the whole vehicle. In terms of comfort, bearings are not only closely related to the smooth operation of the vehicle, but also those bearings of poor quality are prone to produce large noise.
