Top 10 bearing manufacturers in China

As we all know, more than 70% of the world bearing market share is shared by the top ten multinational bearing group companies. Among them, the United States, which accounts for 23% of the global market, 21% of the European Union, and 19% of Japan, are basically dominated by five companies such as Japan’s NSK, Sweden’s SKF, Germany’s FAG, and the United States Timken. At the same time, the high-end market of the world’s bearing industry is monopolized by the above-mentioned enterprises, while the middle and low-end market is mainly concentrated in China.

Chinese bearings are favored by foreign markets because of their high quality and low price. At present, Chinese bearings are exported to the United States, Europe, South America, India, the Middle East, Africa, Russia and other major countries and regions. Different market groups. Relatively speaking, many importers don’t have a deep understanding of Chinese bearings. Let’s talk about the Top 10 bearing manufacturers in China first.

In 2020, China’s policy orientation will continue to guide capital investment in key areas of the bearing industry. With the top 10 bearing manufacturers in China as the leader, the bearing industry will be tilted towards high-precision, high-tech content and high value-added products, accelerating the bearing industry. upgrade. Driven by the development of various fields such as rail transit, medical equipment, new energy, aerospace, and automotive light weighting, the level of China’s high-end bearing casting industry will be significantly improved. As the focus of global manufacturing shifts to China, the development of China’s high-end bearing industry has a strong impetus, and the requirements for domestic high-end bearing manufacturers have become higher and higher. At present, China’s bearing casting industry must focus on improving product grades and reducing manufacturing costs to achieve a strategic transition from “big” to “strong”.
