Eiichi Kobayashi was interviewed for the October issue of The Tribology magazine in Japanese.

We were unable to obtain ISO9001 certification shortly after starting our business due to COVID-19, but we have finally succeeded in obtaining it.

Two bolt flange units, OCSFL208-24 (1-1/2″) & OCSFL208 (40mm), have been added to the Saniline lineup.
The web catalog has been updated accordingly and can be found at https://www.crossocean.com/saniline-catalog/.

The grease fittings, located on both sides of the housing known as B7, are now available. We have occasionally received requests for an additional tapped hole for the smart sensor, and B7 can accommodate that.

This is the follow-up from our post from March 31st 2021.

Our bearings have been running smoothly for three years, whereas our competitors typically experience failures within just three months.
They have only performed one maintenance task in the last three years, which is lubricating the bearings once a week.

We have added a setscrew lock to the inside nut of all CROSSLOC CXC units.

When the shaft rotates rapidly counterclockwise and reaches high speeds, heavy, large nuts increase the risk of the CROSSLOC CXC nuts coming loose and pulling the sleeve. To enhance safety, we have added a setscrew to secure the nut in place. The setscrew features a brass tip to prevent damage to the threads.

The sleeve of the CROSSLOC CX is designed to be pull-to-lock and does not require this additional locking mechanism.

We have been receiving questions about our SRB and Saniline from customers as below.

What is the difference between CX and CXC?
I disassembled CROSSLOC. What is the gap between the nuts to reset?
Can I use underwater?
Do stainless steel bearings rust?

We have FAQ pages for each series now. You can find the pages in the menu or the links below.

New SRB catalog

We are very excited to introduce our New Spherical Roller Bearing catalog!

Our first catalog pictured in the left, was released in August of 2019 with 26 pages. Since that time, we have been very busy adding valuable content and new products. Our catalog has now grown to 66 pages and includes more housing styles, more insert sizes and better interchange information.  We are fortunate to have been successful over the past three years despite challenges faced during the pandemic and are thankful for our loyal customers. We hope you will find this new tool as valuable as we do.
