Multiply service life or reduce costs with the right design

Those who install spherical roller bearings in their applications will find Findling Wälzlager to be a valuable partner: For bearings critical to service life, the load rating could be increased once again, and for non-critical bearing positions, the performance classes according to the ABEG method offer a cost-saving solution.
