To produce the best bearings is the eternal pursuit of BSHA Bearings.

Our stainless steel ball bearings can be supplied with food grade lubricants, water resistant or chemically resistant lubricants as well as high temperature lubricants to withstand up to 300°C. Stainless steel will cope with much higher temperatures than chrome steel.

Stainless steel bearings are suitable for use in mildly corrosive environments as the steel is corrosion resistant but it is affected by seawater and stronger acids or alkalis. For environments that are too corrosive for 440 grade stainless steel, we can supply austenitic 316 grade stainless steel bearings or plastic bearings for low loads and speeds. For higher loads and speeds, we stock a range of full ceramic bearings. Stainless steel bearings can be used in vacuum applications with a vacuum compatible grease. Alternatively, for low speeds, they can be supplied without any lubricant or with a dry lubricant such as molybdenum disulphide or tungsten disulphide.
