ASG ceramic ball bearing (8mm)

Ceramic Silicon Nitride Ball Bearings are the ultimate choice for those who demand the very best performance from their AEG. Ceramic bearings are not only lighter and faster than their steel counterparts, they also have a smoother surface that creates less friction and reduces heat build-up. This thermal signature reduction helps prevent costly failures in upgraded gearboxes.

ULTIMATE ceramic ball bearings have several key advantages:

- Lighter – The ceramic ball is lighter and exerts less outward force on the outer race groove as the bearing rotates. This reduction in power reduces friction and rolling resistance, which greatly reduces heat build-up.

- Harder - The ceramic balls last up to 10 times longer than steel balls due to their superior ability to hold their finish. Seven balls have been selected, offering less centrifugal force than larger six-ball versions, reducing heat and raceway wear at high speeds.

- Smoother - The ceramic ball has smoother surface characteristics than the steel ball. This means less friction between the ball and races, causing the bearing to rotate faster and generating less heat.

- Thermal - The ceramic ball has better thermal properties than the steel ball. Thermal expansion is only one-third that of steel balls, further reducing heat build-up.

- Lubrication - The ceramic balls are resistant to oxidation and chemicals and require essentially no lubrication. The bearings are lubricated with a very small amount of oil, not gel or grease.
