Blue Ring Air Bearings

Kracht presents the most affordable air bearings for industrial applications

In the 60s and 70s air bearings became very popular. At the time, often in the orifice version meaning small drilled holes in a metal shell. But the costs were relatively high and the applications limited. Since then, air bearings became more interesting for the high tech industry and precision applications.

Our Blue Ring ® Air Bearings are not new, but we modified and improved the design. We choose porous material to guide compressed air to the surface and make the shaft float on a strong air film. Our air bearings are affordable and therefore easy to use in all kinds of applications. It fits together with standard available components, like linear shafts with ISO tolerance h6, to obtain the highest possible stiffness. You can use standard aluminium housings similar to the ones that are used to house linear ball bearings. Choose between 5 common sizes, metric only.

Please note, besides our air bearings you can find all necessary components such as shafts, o-rings, fittings, housings, shaft supports and epoxy materials in our webshop. This way, it will be easy to build your own air bearing system.
