HARP ball bearings are produced only from superpurity steel with decreased oxygen containing, which increases service lifetime of the bearing and decreases fatigue failures. In addition all working surfaces of HARP bearings are superfinished in order to decrease bearing heating, improve noise and vibroacoustic features and durability. The rollers with modified contact also improve operational features.
