Black oxidised coated bearing

Black Oxidised Coated Bearing

BMI has developed black oxide bearings to boost reliability & performance and slash failure rates by up to 70%.

BMI surface treatment of black oxide can significantly improve performance at acceptable cost.

For a crane application engineers developed the coating to protect against moisture and aggressive oil ingredients. It also helps improve friction behaviour and reduce wear particularly under mixed conditions. The current application of crane hook used in offshore application where the bearings are subjected to moisture saw improved bearing life thus resulting in lower downtime.

Benefits

• Improved resistance to corrosion and smearing.
• Reduced wear.
• Lower damage from oil additives
• Improved performance in low lubrication condition.
