Stainless steel bearings are available capped (with seals or shields) or open. Open bearings that are also available capped may have recesses in the ring side faces.These bearings have a lower load carrying capacity than same-sized bearings made of high chromium steel.

Stainless steel bearings bring unique capabilities for food processing and packaging, beverage, medical and marine equipment. Kilian engineers combine advanced bearing design expertise with broad industry knowledge to satisfy the toughest application requirements.
