Market Overview:

The Japan ceramic roller bearings market is expected to continue its strong growth during the forecast period (2021-2026). Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, we are continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic on different end use industries. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor.

Ceramic roller bearings refer to anti-friction ball elements positioned in the moving parts of equipment for smooth and efficient functioning. They are usually composed of silicon nitride (Si3N4), zirconium oxide (ZrO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), and silicon carbide (SiC). Ceramic roller bearings consist of an inner and outer ring, balls, snaps rings, and retainers, which reduce friction in motion while supporting both axial and radial loads. As compared to steel roller bearings, ceramic bearings exhibit lower thermal conductivity, improved water resistance, better dimensional stability, enhanced acceleration capability, and magnified electrical insulation. As a result, they are employed in the manufacturing of electric motors, performance racing vehicles, laboratory equipment, and underwater applications.

The inflating demand for ceramic roller bearings in Japan can be attributed to the increasing production of passenger vehicles in the country. Additionally, an increasing emphasis on the upgradation of existing manufacturing facilities by installing high-performance machinery to ensure production accuracy is acting as a growth-inducing factor. Moreover, rapid urbanization and industrialization, along with the emerging trend of automation in heavy-duty applications, are fueling the market growth. Furthermore, these bearings are suitable for functioning in highly corrosive environments, due to which they are being used in the manufacturing of rail and marine equipment. This is creating a positive outlook for the market in Japan.
