The NU 1016 ECM/HC5C3 Hybrid ceramic cylindrical roller bearings are primarily composed of high-precision bearing steel inner and outer rings, silicon nitride ceramic cylindrical rollers, and a cage (solid brass or outer ring guided type). The rollers and raceways are logarithmically modified, allowing for separability of the inner and outer rings, with precision grades ranging from P4 to P2.
The ceramic rollers in hybrid ceramic cylindrical roller bearings have low density and high elastic modulus, significantly reducing centrifugal force and increasing limiting speed by over 30%. The electrical insulation properties of the ceramic material effectively prevent electrolytic corrosion, making them suitable for applications with shaft current. They also feature a low coefficient of thermal expansion, low temperature rise, good thermal stability, low coefficient of friction, extended bearing life, and strong corrosion resistance.
