Description:Miniature bearings for dental tools are typically designed with high
speed, high temperature and reliability in mind. The Boca Bearing
Company specializes in miniature, precision, high speed, high heat
bearings. There are two basic types of dental ball bearings depending on
the type of work that the tool is designed for. The first type is the
Miniature Radial, Deep Groove Bearing and the second type is the Thrust
Bearing. Miniature Radial, Deep Groove Bearings are designed for working
in deep grooves and for angled dental surfaces. Radial Bearings have an
inner ring, an outer ring, a series of balls and typically a cage to
contain the balls. The second type of dental ball bearing is the
miniature Thrust Bearing. This type of bearing is used for side or
thrust loads. Thrust Bearings use balls, rollers or needles. In addition
to these working surfaces they also typically have a ring and a seating
surface. Using ceramic bearings in your dental hand piece will allow it
to last up to 30% longer than standard steel bearings. For more
information about repairing your dental hand piece see here for an
excellent Dental Hand Piece Repair blog.
