💡 Why go ceramic in a thin-section bearing?
Ceramic balls are smoother and lighter, reducing rolling resistance and internal heat while allowing for higher RPMs. They also resist corrosion and wear better than steel, especially in semi-wet or harsh conditions.

Perfect for high-efficiency systems where space, speed, and durability matter most.
