A bearing is a machine component that enables relative motion between two parts, typically to support and reduce friction in rotating or linear movement. Bearings are essential in almost all machinery and vehicles. Koyo is the bearing brand of JTEKT Corporation, a Japanese multinational company. Koyo is globally recognized for its high-quality, precision-engineered bearings, used across various industries. 🏷️ Types of Koyo Bearings Koyo manufactures a full range of bearing types for diverse applications: 1. Deep Groove Ball Bearings Most commonly used type Designed for radial and limited axial loads Used in: electric motors, pumps, gearboxes, household appliances 2. Angular Contact Ball Bearings Designed to handle combined radial and axial loads Often used in pairs or sets for precision applications Common in: machine tool spindles, automotive hubs 3. Self-Aligning Ball Bearings Can accommodate shaft misalignment Ideal for applications with installation inaccuracies Used in: textile machinery, agricultural equipment 4. Cylindrical Roller Bearings High radial load capacity Can accommodate limited axial loads depending on design Applications: electric motors, pumps, gearboxes 5. Tapered Roller Bearings Designed for combined radial and axial loads Inner and outer ring raceways are conical Used in: automotive wheels, gearboxes, heavy machinery 6. Spherical Roller Bearings Self-aligning, excellent for heavy radial and axial loads Withstands misalignment and shaft deflections Used in: mining equipment, paper mills, industrial fans 7. Needle Roller Bearings Small cylindrical rollers, high load-carrying capacity Compact design Ideal for: automotive transmissions, two-wheelers, power tools 8. Thrust Bearings Support axial loads only Available in ball or roller designs Used in: automotive clutches, marine equipment, vertical shafts 🧰 Features of Koyo Bearings Feature Description High Precision Manufactured to international tolerance standards Low Friction Minimizes energy loss and heat generation High Load Capacity Wide range of radial and axial load handling Durability High-quality steel and heat treatment for long service life Corrosion Resistance Special coatings or stainless steel versions available Pre-lubricated Options Sealed or shielded bearings come pre-greased 🔍 Bearing Code Example – Koyo Designation Example: 6205 ZZ C3 Code Meaning 6205 Bearing series (6 = deep groove ball bearing, 205 = size) ZZ Shield on both sides (metal shields) C3 Internal clearance greater than normal (for thermal expansion) 🏭 Applications of Koyo Bearings Automotive: wheel hubs, transmissions, engines Industrial machinery: gearboxes, compressors, electric motors Construction equipment: cranes, excavators, drilling rigs Aerospace: actuators, gear systems Agricultural machinery: tractors, harvesters Home appliances: fans, washing machines, air conditioners ✅ Why Choose Koyo Bearings?
