Introduction
Precision Division
NHBB’s Precision Division has a longstanding commitment to cost-competitive
volume production methods for nonstandard, ultraprecision miniature and instrument
bearings as well as medium-size bearings up to 2.5 inches in outer diameter. We provide
significant technical expertise by working collaboratively with our customers throughout
the product development process. Our applications engineers incorporate design
innovations in a broad range of bearing construction types, and always leverage the
latest technologies to achieve optimal performance and customer satisfaction.
Our commitment to research and development, as demonstrated by our modern product
development and testing lab, has strengthened our ability to offer unique solutions,
especially in high speed and low torque applications. With our expanded testing
capabilities, we are able to simulate customer application parameters, which results in
bearings that last longer, perform more consistently, and run quieter. We are also proud
of several industry firsts, including our patented silver-polymer retainer, which extends
bearing life by up to 60%.
The Precision Division factory in Chatsworth, California features advanced CNC
equipment for machining and grinding, and a Class 1000 clean room where all bearing
assembly takes place. This is also the state-of-the-art location for unique lubricant
processing, functional testing, precise dimensional coding of ring components, and
laser marking.
Our commitment to excellence and our strong customer partnerships reveal a
deeper goal…Keeping Technology on the Move®.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
The NHBB numbering system identifies ball bearing
size and design. This system is not a guide to create
a customized ball bearing. Please use the numbering
system to decipher the basic bearing numbers listed
in this catalog, or to define a number given to you by
a representative of NHBB. Please consult a member
of the NHBB sales or engineering staff to help you
design a new bearing or to interchange another
manufacturer’s part number.

CUSTOM SPECIALTY BEARINGS have been developed for applications
that require precise running accuracy and high speed capability, with the
option of autoclavability. The machined Torlon® cage, designated as retainer
option (M4, M5), is proven to withstand repeated autoclaving. This machined
Torlon® retainer also has the option of a patented silver coating, which
extends operational life in marginally lubricated applications and provides
an added benefit with the antimicrobial properties of the silver coating.
500,000 rpm). The design of these bearings incorporates the advantage of
ultra-precision tolerances, a geometrically balanced design, super finished
raceways, improved ball grade and a variety of retainer options.
The standard cage options are noted by chassis size, although there are
numerous other materials available that can be used to optimize performance specific to your unique application. All of the sizes listed represent
current production sizes, although almost any part can be designed to
take advantage of the operating characteristics of our Custom Specialty
Bearings.
These bearings are widely used in critical dental/medical applications,
although they are ideally suited for any high speed application (up to

CUSTOM SPECIALTY BEARINGS have been developed for applications
that require precise running accuracy and high speed capability, with the
option of autoclavability. The machined Torlon® cage, designated as retainer
option (M4, M5), is proven to withstand repeated autoclaving. This machined
Torlon® retainer also has the option of a patented silver coating, which
extends operational life in marginally lubricated applications and provides
an added benefit with the antimicrobial properties of the silver coating.
500,000 rpm). The design of these bearings incorporates the advantage of
ultra-precision tolerances, a geometrically balanced design, super finished
raceways, improved ball grade and a variety of retainer options.
The standard cage options are noted by chassis size, although there are
numerous other materials available that can be used to optimize performance specific to your unique application. All of the sizes listed represent
current production sizes, although almost any part can be designed to
take advantage of the operating characteristics of our Custom Specialty
Bearings.
These bearings are widely used in critical dental/medical applications,
although they are ideally suited for any high speed application (up to

Computer Design and Analysis
NHBB utilizes computerized design capabilities to examine and
analyze complex ball bearing applications. These capabilities
ensure that the ultraprecision ball bearing you select will meet
your specific requirements for performance, life, and cost.
Engineering Test Laboratory
We maintain a fully equipped engineering test laboratory that
enables us to validate the performance characteristics of our ball
bearing designs. The lab contains a full complement of commercially available equipment, as well as specialized equipment
developed by NHBB and precisely tailored for specific test
requirements, such as our patented high speed bearing vibrational analysis system.

One of two standard designs for miniature and instrument ball

design for good durability and loosely clinched tabs, which are
favorable for starting torque. This retainer design is economical
DQGUHDGLO\DYDLODEOHEXWLVOLPLWHGWRORZHUVSHHGDSSOLFDWLRQV
Two-piece ribbon retainers are used in radial bearings.
The one-piece stamped crown retainer is manufactured from
hardened stainless steel and has coined ball pockets, which
provide a hard, smooth, low-friction contact surface to the balls.
This design is very lightweight, smooth running, cost effective,
and readily available. The one-piece stamped crown retainer is
also used in radial bearings, but it has a slightly higher speed
capability than the stamped ribbon design. For speeds exceeding
the capabilities of this retainer, a machined retainer should be
