Friction cut
02 May 2013
The latest Sealed Energy Efficient deep groove ball bearing (sealed E2 DGBB) from SKF is said to reduce frictional losses by up to 30%.

This helps to save energy and reduce CO2 in a wide range of applications, from electric motors and two-wheelers to industrial conveyors and water pumps.
The latest sealed E2 DGBB incorporates a number of new features, including the addition of a seal that provides minimal interference between the inner ring and seal lip, without compromising the performance of the sealing ability.
In conjunction with optimised internal geometry, the use of a high speed polymer cage, long life grease for high speed applications, this helps to minimise friction, reduce running temperature and increase operating life.
