Improving Efficiency

With increasing fuel prices and the demand to reduce the pollution caused by emissions of industrial and automotive engines, energy efficiency has become hugely important. By leveraging the latest manufacturing equipment and collaborating with us earlier in your process, we can offer high performance, low-friction bearings that deliver the cost savings and improved efficiency you need. 

  • Maximized efficiency thanks to low friction properties of materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene 
  • Low-friction and self-lubricating bearings can obtain an almost perfect bearing form for optimized performance 

GGB`s HI-EX® high performance bearings offer improved energy efficiency thanks to the exceptionally low friction properties of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) which is incorporated in the bearing sliding layer to maximize energy efficiency of the complete assembly. 
GGB’s HPMB® low-friction bearings and GGB-CSM® self-lubricating bearings can be machined on the inner diameter after assembly in the housing to reduce to a minimum clearance variation and to obtain an almost perfect bearing form (circularity, cylindricity and coaxiality) which further enhances energy efficiency.
