E. Longmeadow, MA – LM76 is continuing to expand its FDA compliant radial and linear bearing product lines. CERAMICSPEED Bearing Units are the latest additions. Bearings used in the food and beverage industry have to be reliable, easily cleaned, and require only minimal maintenance. CERAMICSPEED Bearing Units featuring FDA-approved Si3N4 (Silicon Nitride) balls have extremely long service life as Si3N4 balls are 2 times harder than steel balls and 4 times smoother. This means, CERAMICSPEED Bearing Units handle higher loads with less friction, resulting in longer life of the balls and the race. Balls made from Silicon Nitride do not change their shape under load and are not subject to spalling which can contaminate the foods or beverages being processed. They are also very tolerant of temperature extremes (-30OC to 100OC) and thermal shock.

CERAMICSPEED Bearing Units have also been designed with rounded surfaces and are then covered with polyurethane to create an smooth impenetrable surface where debris, bacteria, water and other liquids cannot collect. Available in standard styles and sizes, these low maintenance bearings are shipped lubricated with and FDA approved grease or with a proprietary SLT lubricant created to be extremely durable and maintenance free for extremely harsh environments.
