PCD Bearings for Combined Radial and Thrust Loads
Some loading scenarios may require bearings that sustain both thrust and radial loads. Our bearings for combined loads are custom designed for each application. Polycrystalline Diamond bearings can be manufactured by US Synthetic Bearings to meet these requirements.
PCD Bearings for Combined Radial and Thrust LoadsProducts
US Synthetic bearings are extremely hard, are resistant to abrasives, have low coefficient of friction (COF), and are resistant to high temperatures.
US Synthetic Bearings offers the following:
PCD Bearings for Thrust Loads
In down-hole drilling tools, large thrust loads can result from drilling and from the hydraulic loading caused by drilling mud flowing through tool components. US Synthetic PCD bearings provide a high-performance alternative to conventional bearings. PCD bearings are virtually impervious to abrasive particles in the drilling mud that often cause ball bearings to wear out more quickly.

Our PDC radial bearings are designed to carry the radial, or side loads, in down-hole drilling tools. US Synthetic bearings offer a more abrasive resistant bearing with the potential to increase tool life, reliability, and side load carrying capacity than tungsten carbide alternatives.

Polycrystalline diamond is an extremely wear resistant material that can be used to protect drilling tool components from abrasive wear caused by contact between the exterior of the tool and the bore-hole wall.
