Carbura de siliciu are multe beneficii similare nitrurii de siliciu. Aceasta include o economie substanțială de greutate în comparație cu oțelul pentru rulmenți. Rulmenții cu carbură de siliciu sunt cei mai potriviți pentru mediile cele mai toxice și agresive din punct de vedere chimic din lume. Ca și alți rulmenți ceramici, carbura de siliciu poate funcționa fără lubrifiere, are duritate mare și cuplu scăzut.
Silicon carbide balls are used less frequently than other ceramic materials. Due to its raw material cost and processing difficulty. Silicon carbide has the best heat and corrosion resistance of all ceramic materials. Silicon carbide is best suited for low loads, low to medium speeds and highly corrosive environments.
Siliciu carbide ceramic balls not only have excellent normal temperature mechanical properties, such as high bending strength, excellent oxidation resistance, good corrosion resistance, high wear resistance and low friction coefficient, but also have high temperature mechanical properties (strength, creep resistance denaturation, etc.). ) and has been widely used in petroleum, chemical industry, microelectronics, automobile, aerospace, papermaking, laser, mining and atomic energy and other industrial fields.
