Optimize Your Electric Motors


Electrical currents can cause considerable damage when passing through your roller bearings used in a variety of applications spanning traction motors, DC or AC motors, and generators. This type of bearing failure often results in significant downtime, production loss, and maintenance and repair costs. As a more economical solution, Schaeffler Current Insulated Bearings exhibit significantly higher resistance to electrical currents when compared to standard bearings.

Why FAG Current-Insulated Bearings from Schaeffler?

FAG's current-insulated bearings have been engineered with a proprietary ceramic coating to stop stray electric current in its tracks. This saves on energy costs, and a longer grease life reduces the need for maintenance.
