Metric Extra Thin Section Bearings

While Silverthin is the premier source for Made in the USA Thin Section Bearings, sometimes they are just not thin enough. Some applications require even lighter, thinner bearings. In those cases Silverthin Extra Thin Section Bearings represent a unique option. All of these parts are made in the same internal design configurations as Silverthin Thin Section bearings, and all are Made in the USA:

• A-Type (Angular Contact – 30°)
• C-Type (Radial)
• X-Type (Four Point Contact – 30°)

Aside from being Extra Thin, the cross-sections are not square. They come in two constant cross-section, variable ID sizes:

• 2mm Wide x 3mm High
• Standard with no cage

These bearings provide a unique solution for small spaces and provide less torque than more common bushing or plain bearings that may be used. It is recommended that Silverthin Engineering be consulted by any designer wanting to use Silverthin Extra Thin Section bearings. Their unique geometry requires extra considerations.
