Wire race bearing

Wire race bearings can be large yet lightweight and with small profile and good precision.

Wire races have little intrinsic structure and must be adequately supported by the bearing housing.

The aim of his thoughts was a much closer relation between bearing and enclosing design to keep it as compact and as lightweight as possible.

The space-saving design is the main advantage with the capability of loads and moments from all directions at the same time.

Due to the specific design, wire race bearings have also system inherent disadvantages like increased assembly time, because the race rings must be inserted accurately into the enclosing design to ensure faultless function.
