A low noise bearing is essential for smooth-running sliding parts in cars. As cars become more silent, the need for noise-free sliding parts is rising. 

OEMs are increasingly requiring low noise bearings. They are concerned about the noise-causing vibration and performance challenges associated with larger systems. New government regulations are also helping to address this issue. Timken engineers use software tools to simulate noise and vibration and develop low-noise bearings. With these innovations, Timken is making it easier for the industry to meet strict NVH standards. Ultimately, the goal is to make every car as noise-free as possible.

The first step in reducing noise in your car is choosing the right type of bearing. Choosing the right one is essential, but there are several other factors that can impact noise and improve its quality. Some common factors include lubricant choice, fit, and quality. Excess noise is a common sign of worn out wheel bearings in cars. This excess noise is the easiest way to identify damaged wheel bearings. This problem is caused by imperfect roundness of bearing rings, balls, and raceways. These imperfections cause excessive vibration and damage the life of the bearing.

The development of environmentally friendly cars has put a new spotlight on the automotive industry. Electric cars are increasingly becoming a popular option and are quieter than combustion engine vehicles. This means that noises previously masked by engine sound will now be more noticeable.

A low noise bearing is a benefit of a precision machine. Precision ball bearings have a low friction coefficient and a high-precision surface. As a result, they reduce energy consumption, noise, heat, and wear. They are economical and exchangeable machine elements and are suitable for high-speed applications. The deep groove ball bearing features full shoulders on its raceways, which allow seals to be added easily and reduce noise.

The high-speed ball bearings are suitable for axial load applications and exhibit low noise. They are also suitable for high-speed applications, including those involving torque or rotation. Their low-noise operation is a significant advantage for most manufacturers. Its ability to withstand high-speed operations is also another advantage of high-speed ball bearings. They are available in single and double direction designs. The outer rings of the bearing are usually retained with a retainer.
