1. Role of Steel Balls

Steel balls are critical components within bearings, serving the following purposes:

Reducing friction: Steel balls ｒｅｐｌａｃｅ sliding motion with rolling motion, significantly decreasing friction and improving rotational speed.

Load transmission: Steel balls bear the load applied to the bearing and distribute it evenly across the raceways.

Ensuring stable rotation: High-precision steel balls ensure smooth operation, minimizing vibration and noise.

2. Why Choose 1.2mm Steel Balls

Suitable for miniature bearings: Fishing reel and motor bearings are often compact in size, necessitating small-diameter steel balls, with 1.2mm being a commonly employed dimension.

Lightweight design: The need for portability and efficient operation in fishing equipment and motors demands lightweight designs, which are well-supported by small-sized steel balls.

High-speed performance: Smaller steel balls possess lower mass and inertia, making them ideal for high-speed applications.

Exceptional precision: Fishing reel mechanisms and motor components require high-precision operation. Our 1.2mm steel balls are typically manufactured to G10 grade (with dimensional tolerances in the micron range).
