There are several important advantages to bearing performance that are due to the improved surface characteristics of silicon nitride balls. Because the microstructure of silicon nitride can be uniformly engineered to sub-micron grain size, the surface of a silicon nitride ball can be finished to <0.15 micro-inch Ra and the roundness is often better than 0.00001 tolerance. This precision res... (read more)
