Bicycle Bearings

SANBURG INT'L LTD.is proud to announce the new Lightning Bearing Technology (LBT) line of ceramic bicycle bearings for hubs, bottom brackets, headsets and pivot points. Ceramic by its nature is lighter than steel by about 2/3 the weight, it is harder than steel when it is in ball form and it is virtually frictionless because it is non-porous. A ceramic hybrid bearing has steel races with ceramic balls and a full ceramic bearing has ceramic races and balls. Full ceramic and ceramic hybrid bearings are particularly well suited to both competitive and recreational bicycle applications.

Reducing rolling resistance and conserving energy has been our hallmark. We offer a full line of full ceramic & ceramic hybrid bearings specifically suited to bicycles. Various ABEC tolerances, radial plays, retainer styles and seal/shield configurations are available. To make things easier for you we have compiled bearing kits and listed them according to the manufacturer and model of the bike component that the bearings will fit.

Our Stainless Rubber Seal line of bike bearings are specially designed for Off Road or excessively dirty riding environments. These bearings are maintenance free and lubed for life and an affordable way to replace stock bearings. The heavy duty rubber seal provides extra protection against the harshest elements.

Our Ultra Seal line of ceramic hybrid "bicycle bearings" are specially designed for On Road and relatively clean riding environments. These bearings are maintenance free and lubed for life. The non-contact seal eliminates any drag typically associated with a rubber sealed bearings and still provides extra protection against external elements. All sealed bearings are packed in grease and will require a short break in period to loosen up.

Silicon Nitride (Si3N4) Ceramic Balls are suitable for applications where high loads, high speeds and extreme temeratures are factors. Long life and the need for minimal lubrication make this material appropriate for extreme applications. Silicon Nitirde is non-porous, non-magentic, non corrosive and lighter than steel. In ball form, ceramic balls are also harder than steel and because ceramic balls are non-porous they are virtually frictionless. and capable of spinning faster than steel balls.
