    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_(bearing)

    Ball (bearing) Bearing balls are special highly spherical and smooth balls, most commonly used in ball bearings, but also used as components in things like freewheel mechanisms. The balls themselves are commonly referred to as ball bearings. [1] This is an example of a synecdoche. The balls come in many different grades.

    They can be made from many different materials, including stainless steel, chrome steel, and ceramic (silicon nitride, Si 3 N 4). A hybrid ball bearing is a bearing with ceramic balls and metal races. Angular contact An angular contact ball bearing uses axially asymmetric races. An axial load passes in a straight line through the bearing ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_(mechanical)

    A ball bearing. A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion to only the desired motion and reduces friction between moving parts.The design of the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear movement of the moving part or for free rotation around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babbitt_(alloy)

    Babbitt metal or bearing metal is any of several alloys used for the bearing surface in a plain bearing. The original Babbitt alloy was invented in 1839 by Isaac Babbitt [1] in Taunton, Massachusetts, United States. He disclosed one of his alloy recipes but kept others as trade secrets. [2] Other formulations were developed later. [3]

  6. Plain bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plain_bearing

    A plain bearing, or more commonly sliding contact bearing and slide bearing (in railroading sometimes called a solid bearing, journal bearing, or friction bearing[2]), is the simplest type of bearing, comprising just a bearing surface and no rolling elements. Therefore, the part of the shaft in contact with the bearing slides over the bearing ...

  7. Rolling-element bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling-element_bearing

    A sealed deep groove ball bearing. In mechanical engineering, a rolling-element bearing, also known as a rolling bearing, [1] is a bearing which carries a load by placing rolling elements (such as balls or rollers) between two concentric, grooved rings called races. The relative motion of the races causes the rolling elements to roll with very ...
