Although several of the main manufacturers of control ball bearings have now withdrawn from the aircraft engineering market, one company is certainly bucking the trend. The Schatz Bearing Corporation, based in New York, has made a complete "U" turn in its manufacturing strategy to concentrate on the design and manufacture of precision aircraft bearings.
Specified widely by many of the world's leading aircraft builders, these bearings are now available in the UK from sole agent, R. A. Rodriguez. Extra light torque tube bearings feature strongly in the range as well as self-aligning, pulley and double row standards, many to military specifications.
The Schatz range from R.A. Rodriguez is both comprehensive and very competitively priced. Full specifications and application guidance notes on these new bearings are contained in a new 64-page catalogue available from the company's sales office in Letchworth.
