Global Power Tool Bearing Market Definition

Power tools are commonplace tools in many industries from manufacturing, to automotive, to aerospace. In the industrial arena, power tools are highly engineered products that reduce worker fatigue and improve quality and productivity. They are routinely used in all types of operations such as drilling, driving (fasteners), shaping, cutting, sanding, routing, grinding, polishing, and more. Today’s power tools rely on various specialized parts and components that allow them to operate efficiently and smoothly while holding tight tolerances. Bearings are particularly important to the reliability and accuracy of machining equipment as they are responsible for enhancing spindle movement. These components generally consist of rollers and balls that are positioned between inner and outer raceways.

Bearings play a critical role in the performance and reliability of these tools. The power tool bearings are generally responsible for handling combined loading conditions (radial and axial), low friction, high-speed operation, low noise and vibration, and high reliability. Bearings used in the power tool applications are generally produced to Electric Motor Quality (EMQ) noise levels. The EMQ standards are not uniform in countries (except in China where there is a national standard) and vary from company to company, but the EMQ rating indicates they are suitable for use in electric motors.

Power tool-bearing balls and rings are most commonly produced from SAE 52100 chrome steel. This thru hardening alloy has excellent wear resistance and fatigue strength and is the most cost-effective choice in a non-corrosive environment. In hand power tools, bearings are typically well protected within a housing or enclosure. The most common bearing seal material is a nitrile rubber, which is typically Buna-N bonded to a steel insert fixed into a groove in the outer ring. Aside from the Buna-n and nitrile rubber material, other materials are available for chemical resistance and higher temperatures. These include Viton and F Teflon fabric that has good chemical resistance and a maximum operating temperature of 400° F.

Global Power Tool Bearing Market Overview

The growing demand for power tools across the industry verticals is one of the primary factors that is propelling the growth of the market. The growth of the automotive, construction, and manufacturing sector, especially in emerging countries, have contributed to the growth of the market. Reduced requirement of labor and ease of operation are some of the major benefits of power tools, reducing the growing demand across the industries.

The rising technological advancement is one of the key factors that is driving the growth of the market. With the advent of the industrial internet of things (IIoT), several equipment and machinery are beginning to get connected and their conditions are starting to be continuously monitored. This trend has impacted the power tool-bearing market too. Therefore, manufacturers of the bearing have started supplying smart bearings, whose condition can be continuously monitored to predict faults before they occur.

However, the high cost of maintenance of the power tool bearing is one of the major factors that is hindering the growth of the market over the forecast period. Furthermore, growing safety concerns and compliance issues with strict regulations further hamper the market’s growth. The rising adoption of hybrid bearings in power tools is expected to increase during the forecast period, as end-users are looking at ways to minimize maintenance costs. This is expected to offer an enormous amount of opportunities for the bearing manufacturers over the forecast period.
