Hard Materials are widely used as bearings because of their hardness and abrasion performance, Synthetic Sapphire and Ruby are the best materials for precision instruments bearings, because this material can be high polished and their outstanding hardness. When you choose Sapphire/Ruby as your bearings you will know the advantages
Sapphire & Ruby Bearings are widely used in many precision & Tinny instruments. Since Ruby was synthesized in the laboratory, it has been quickly and widely used as the bearing of clocks and watches, and the service life of the clocks has been greatly extended. With the expansion of technology and applications, sapphire is used by more and more precision instruments today, mainly because of the wear-resistant properties of sapphire. Under normal circumstances, people are more willing to use ruby, not only because of its appearance The red color makes it easier to find, and because the ruby looks expensive to everyone
Basically there are main types as below:
Ring Jewel Bearing. -Radical Or Sleeve Bearings Used With A Straight Cylindrical Shaft.
