What is ROX?
ROX is the name of a bearing.
A bearing is a part inside a machine.
A bearing helps parts of the machine move.
The ROX bearing is very strong.
We also call it a “Heavy-Metal Bearing”.
The ROX bearing is for heavy work.
For example:
- Work in mines
- Work in stone quarries
There is a lot of dust in these places.
There is a lot of heat.
There is a lot of shaking.
We call this shaking vibration.
The ROX bearing can handle these hard conditions.
It helps the machine keep working.
What can ROX do well?
1. It lasts a long time
The ROX bearing lasts longer than many other bearings.
It can last twice as long.
Sometimes it lasts even three times as long.
You do not need to change it often.
2. It keeps the machine running
The ROX bearing has special protection.
The protection has two metal shields.
We call these shields deflectors.
- The shields keep out dust
- The shields keep out dirt
- The shields keep the grease inside the bearing
Grease is a soft, oily material.
Grease helps the bearing move well.
3. It reduces downtime
ROX helps machines work for longer.
Machines stop less often.
The stop time is shorter.
The stop time can be 50% less.
This helps you to keep working.
Easy to use
You can install the ROX bearing easily.
It fits standard bearings.
The ROX bearing is ISO-compatible.
This means it fits international size standards.
- You do not need special tools
- You do not need to change your machine
The ROX bearing needs less maintenance.
Maintenance means checking and caring for the parts.
You need to add grease only half as often.
