Products & Services
With its TAROL axlebox bearings certified to the US AAR standard, Schaeffler presents its bearing-specific Class K seals. Thanks to this certification, the products can be readily used in the USA, Australia, India, Southeast Asia, and many other countries. The development process considered both the re-quirements of the European EN 12080 standard and the US AAR standard, so that the Schaeffler product is the only one to satisfy both standardization systems.When conditions are unfavorable, bearings used in electric motors are susceptible to damage caused by the passage of current. Schaeffler offers a range of innovative solutions to prevent this, including inner and outer rings with oxide ceramic coating and hybrid bearings with ceramic rolling elements. Coated bearings are suitable for breakdown voltages of up to a minimum of 500 V or 1,000 V, depending on the layer thickness. Hybrid bearings with ceramic rolling elements provide even better protection.
