Steelmaking
Resilient. Reliable. Relentless.
The demands of the steelmaking industry are unique and challenging.
Heavy loads and powerful vibrations.
Rapid acceleration and deceleration.
Steel dust, water, extreme heat.
Whether they’re being used in upstream or downstream processes, in the storage yard or during rolling or refining , bearings designed for the steel sector have to be able to cope with a lot.
At NSK our extensive experience and expertise, as well as our commitment to R&D, means we can guarantee that our parts come with a long operating life and extraordinary reliability.
Steelmaking is relentless, but so are our bearings.
Specialist conditions demand specialist knowledge.
Bearings are not a one size fits all solution.
Some applications make very specific demands upon components and steelmaking is certainly one of them. It's an extremely harsh environment where, day in, day out, bearings have to stand up to contamination, heavy loads, strong vibrations, rapid acceleration and deceleration, shock loads and water ingress.
They're also regularly exposed to extreme temperatures, often as high as 400°C.
