RS Components, a trading brand of Electrocomponents plc, has added 4,000 SKF bearings to its portfolio, increasing the offering to a total of 6,000. This is the first step in RS significantly increasing its SKF range offer across bearings, power transmission and seals over the next 12 months.
SKF’s Blue range of food bearings follow innovative hygienic design principles and are relubrication-free. Compared with conventional designs, SKF’s food bearings feature curved surfaces with a smooth finish, making them easy to wash down and reducing the risk of bacteria build-up. Furthermore, the relubrication-free ball bearings are maintenance-free, which increases production uptime and product lifetime and eliminates re-greasing material and maintenance costs.
The SKF spherical roller bearings range includes CC, CA and E design bearings, sealed bearings, and bearings designed specifically for high vibration, high speed, and wind energy applications. The full range of SKF bearings includes many customised solution products, and continued innovation in product performance and applications knowledge. This combination ensures that customers are well set to achieve the TCO savings that support manufacturers in their productivity and output challenges.
