QA1's GEZ series fractured race spherical bearings are suited to high wear and increased load applications in industrial markets and are manufactured from 52100 bearing steel. Because of the strength of the steel, the race cannot be molded around the ball, so it is fractured slightly to allow the ball to be inserted. The hardened and ground surfaces give full ball-to-race conformity, which reduces wear, smooths operation, and lowers localized stress. The GEZ-2RS version is fitted with two rubber seals.
