Leading the supply of roller bearings to South Africa’s mines

In such time- critical industries, OE Bearings has built its business on providing engineering service: product selection, application engineering and fitting and commissioning services. The company has great local industry sector experience, supporting its served markets with comprehensive local stocks of Revolvo split roller bearings.”Our strategy of working in partnership with our sole distributor to provide products that the market needs has really paid off with our market leadership in SA Africa,” said Adrian Menzies, Sales and Marketing Director for Revolvo. “Our ranges of split roller bearings offer significant downtime saving advantages in commodity industries; but these advantages have to be brought to the potential customer base. This is a task that OE Bearings has performed admirably; to the point that we have overtaken traditional SRB suppliers to the SA market.”

The J Series of bearings provides an answer where users need the load capacity of a medium series (MS) split roller bearing, but only have a space envelope to accommodate a light series (LS) SRB.

The J series offers all the practical benefits of the split bearing solution – quick and easy installation, reduced downtime, easy access, strength and durability – but in a more conventional sized envelope. Unlike competitor products that use inferior materials, such as nylon, in their bearing cages, the J series range does not compromise on quality, customers benefiting from the same high quality precision machined bored pocket brass cages and HT250 cast iron housings that have become the hallmark of Revolvo’s SRB range.

Revolvo, the world’s leading manufacturer of specialist bearings, designs and manufactures bespoke high performance bearings for safety critical applications, combining the expertise of its three specialist divisions – SRB, RPP and RF1. It offers a range of standard to custom designed products, along with “extensive experience, flexibility and the technology to meet the most demanding industry needs.”
