INA/FAG Coatings – Overview
INA/FAG standard bearings offer high performance and durability. They provide sophisticated and economical solutions for most bearing applications. However, operating conditions may arise where standard versions reach their limits. In such cases, various coatings can be a solution to extend the service life of a bearing. Coatings are applied to address issues with:
Corrosion and Fit Rust
- Corrosion protection
- Prevention of fit rust
by: Corrotect, Zinc-Iron, Deltatone, Zinc Phosphating (ZnP), Thin Layer Chrome Plating (TDC), Chemical Nickel
Wear, Friction, and Slip
- Improvement of friction behavior
- Wear reduction primarily
during Mixed Friction
by: Brünieren, Manganese Phosphating (MnP), Thin Layer Chrome Plating (TDC), TDC plus LC layer, Chemical Nickel, PTFE, TRIONDUR (DLC), Titanium Nitride
Current Conduction – Electrically Insulated Rolling Bearings
by: Coating according to J20AA, Coating according to J20B
Coatings are applied to the surfaces of rolling bearing components without forming a material bond (e.g., through diffusion) between the layer and the base material. A variety of coatings are used in the rolling bearing sector. They are applied in various ways and offer different advantages for the component. They must always be individually adapted to the installation situation. In many cases, it is sufficient to coat only one part or one of the rolling partners. The attached technical information for download provides an overview of the bearing coatings used by INA/FAG, sorted by primary application areas. Features, advantages, and benefits are specified for each type of coating. Specific applications and references are shown. More information on the electrically insulated bearings can be found here…
