Thin Wall Bearings

Thin Wall Bearings achieve lightweight and compact designs while maintaining high load capacity through optimized material strength and structural engineering. Widely used in space-constrained, weight-sensitive, and precision-demanding applications, they often pair with harmonic drives and linear motors to achieve millimeter-to-micrometer positioning accuracy. Their design balances material strength and structural rigidity to ensure long-term reliability in lightweight configurations.
Core Advantages
Space-Saving Design: Thickness is only 1/3 to 1/2 of traditional bearings, ideal for size-sensitive equipment.
Lightweight Construction: Reduces system inertia and enhances dynamic response.
High Precision: Achieves P4/P2 precision classes via precision grinding and preloading.
Customizable Configurations: Available in flanged, split, or other specialized designs for complex installations.
