Instrument Bearings 1

[alansimpson]

I am looking for information on bearing supports for a miniature shaft through conical tips on shaft ends. I have seen these on gyroscopes and clock gears. Don't know the name of this type of bearing more any supplier. Can be plane or ball.

Anybody got any ideas?

these are jeweled bearings, usually sapphire, and they are available as stock items.

Hello
I want to ask for some help about the creation of standard ATXE library for my industrial process. Is there any dosument in internet which i can use for my job ?

I have seen this application as ball bearings in a suppliers catalogue but can't rember which. It was a long time ago. Jeweled bearings I feel would be too small.

Barden Bearings makes gyroscope bearings...

I haven’t used their jeweled bearings but have used their orifices with excellent results.
