X-life

X-life stands for premium products from the brands INA and FAG and provides development engineers with totally new design perspectives.

State-of-the-art manufacturing technologies enable a better, more uniform surface over the whole contact surface between the rolling elements and raceway. As a result, under identical load there is a significant reduction in the stress conditions present on the rolling elements and raceway. This means

• reduced friction and lower bearing temperatures
• less strain is placed on the lubricant
• a higher basic dynamic load rating
• an increased basic rating life.

Therefore, the operating life of X-life bearings is considerably longer under the same operating conditions. Alternatively, higher loads can now be applied while maintaining the same rating life values.

With their optimized characteristics, X-life bearings enable, for example, downsizing of the bearing support. Furthermore, the improved price/performance ratio ultimately increases the overall cost-effectiveness of the bearing support.
