For more than six decades Barden Corporation has built an enviable (separable and non-separable) and deep groove, Engineering Committee (ABEC) of the American the Barden name has been synonymous with reputation for producing some of the world’s super precision ball bearings. All products in the Bearing Manufacturers Association (ABMA). These bearings of exceptional quality and precision and most precise bearings and is now a key strategic range can meet and will usually exceed ABEC 9 standards are accepted by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and can be seen as Barden bearings are renowned worldwide for their member of the multinational Schaeffler Group. (ISO P2) standards, while full traceability back to broadly equivalent standards for the International high reliability and long operating life in The Group specializes in bearing technologies raw materials can also be provided. Organization for Standardization (ISO). challenging applications. and precision products for aerospace, industrial Barden’s product offering also includes large and plant and automotive industries and has over Barden offers thousands of bearing variations small diameter thin section ball bearings. Produced ABEC ISO M&I ABEC M&I ISO 74,000 employees at more than 180 locations which are used in virtually every sector of industry in standard cross sections and configurations, Standard Standard Standard Standard worldwide. where there is the need to meet critical tolerances, these bearings can be customised to meet the 1 P0 3 P6 3P P6 high speeds and performance under demanding The Barden Corporation boasts state-of-the-art unique needs of each application. 5 P5 5P P5A operating conditions. These include key facilities at its manufacturing plants in Danbury, 7 P4 7P P4A components for the aerospace and defense USA and Plymouth, UK, both of which have 9 P2 9P P2 sectors, vacuum pumps, food processing, some of the world’s most sophisticated machine robotics and medical equipment, including tools, production equipment and inspection ABEC standards define tolerances for several major x-ray and CAT scanners and high speed dental systems installed. As a supplier to some of the bearing dimensions and characteristics, which are handpiece turbines. most prolific blue chip companies across the divided into envelope dimensions (bore, OD and globe, quality is of the utmost importance width) and bearing geometry. Bores and OD’s may Barden’s success has been built on a solid throughout the organization. Stringent be calibrated for greater mounting flexibility. foundation of manufacturing and engineering standards are applied to every element of the Barden encompasses design expertise, a highly skilled workforce and business, from the customer interface and specialist product lines, the ability to design bespoke engineered solutions design, through to production, packaging including large and small for its customers. and delivery. diameter thin section bearings, dental bearings, spindle and turbine bearings, turbomolecular pump and machine tool bearings. While general purpose bearings for these ranges are manufactured to ABEC 1 through to ABEC 9 standards commercially, Barden super precision bearings come in inch or Barden bearings of these metric dimensions with diameters ranging from types meet or exceed ABEC 7 geometric standards. Additionally, Barden’s ‘miniature and instrument’ 4mm (5/32") OD up to 300mm (11½") OD. A variety product range is produced in equivalent classes of seals, shields and metallic/non-metallic cage with added refinements designated by suffixes, designs are available to meet most requirements. and are comparable to ABEC 7 or above. Many Barden bearings operate comfortably at speeds reaching 2 million dN (bore in mm x RPM), or above. 4 5 Capabilities Precision with Vision Beyond ABEC Sizes Applications Vacuum pumps place severe demands on precision ABEC classes are primarily concerned with bearing Barden’s super precision bearings are available Complementing Barden’s range of standard bearings, which must operate reliably under extreme conditions and meet long life
