Needle roller bearings

C&U needle roller bearings for engine rocker arms have been designed to maximize radial load support and durability while minimizing friction in overhead valve engines.

SA series bearings for automotive generators

Automotive alternating current generators are exposed to brush wear powder particles, exterior dust, and turbid water, all while running at high temperatures, under high loads, and at variable speeds. C&U SA series bearings are manufactured to withstand these severe working conditions. They are highly reliable, have a low fatigue life, high sealing performance, and high temperature tolerance.

Silicone fan bearings

C&U silicone fan bearings maximize silicone’s natural ability to withstand wide thermal variations and its compatibility with metals in automotive applications. These top-of-the-line bearings also feature high shock absorption, helping to eliminate stress and deterioration risks.

Tapered roller bearings

C&U tapered roller bearings are designed to absorb force and maintain shaft alignment. They are engineered using advanced processing technology based on the FMAE analysis results and have adopted the reinforced structure. C&U tapered roller bearings are built to run quietly and accurately, minimize friction, excel at high speeds, and provide long service life in applications such as truck axles, differentials, and transmissions.

Tensioner belt

C&U offers top-of-the-line tensioner belt bearings, designed and built to withstand high rotation speeds and support significant axial capacity.

Thrust ball bearings

C&U’s industry-leading thrust ball bearings are designed to sustain thrust loads in high-speed applications, while maintaining superior performance. The highest quality materials and manufacturing standards are employed to maximize durability and service life in a variety of automotive applications.

Water pump bearings

C&U water pump bearings incorporate the latest technologies and engineering for maximum durability and reliable pump operation. Engine designs are continually being optimized for higher power, higher reliability, lower energy consumption, and compact size. To achieve these goals, water pumps must also be lighter in weight and more compact, while providing greater flow capacity and higher rotary speeds. To help meet this criteria, C&U water pump bearings feature higher heat-resistant qualities, excellent running accuracy, and exceptional sealing performance. The range of products C&U offers includes: single and double-row ball water pump bearings, single-row roller water pump bearings, as well as single-row and double-row ball water pump bearings with an internal design changed to angular contact.
