Muskegon, Michigan, USA...Thin section bearings provide space and weight savings of more than 80% in most applications, when compared to traditional ball bearings. One type X thin section bearing can replace two traditional bearings, while types A and C are ideal for low torque, high precision applications.

A new white paper from Kaydon Bearings describes the space and weight savings of using thin section bearings in place of traditional bearings; the benefits of the various types of thin section bearings; and the advantages of their constant cross-sections.
