Bearing & Power Transmission Solutions for Demanding Applications
Bearings and transmission components are the foundation of every rotating machine — from main engines and propulsion shafts to pumps, compressors, and deck winches. The right bearing selection determines equipment lifespan, maintenance intervals, and operational reliability. In marine environments, where salt spray, vibration, and continuous operation are the norm, quality tolerances are critical.
Hicool supplies bearings and transmission parts from China’s leading manufacturers, many of whom produce to ISO 492 tolerances and hold classification society approvals. We cross-reference every order against OEM part numbers to ensure dimensional and performance equivalence with SKF, FAG, NSK, Timken, and NTN specifications.
Bearing Types & Applications
Our bearing range covers deep groove ball bearings (6200, 6300 series and variants) for general-purpose applications, spherical roller bearings (22200, 23000 series) for heavy loads with shaft misalignment, tapered roller bearings (30200, 32000 series) for combined radial and axial loads, and cylindrical roller bearings (NU, NJ, NUP series) for high radial load capacity in gearboxes and electric motors.
For marine propulsion, we supply white metal (Babbitt) stern tube bearings, water-lubricated polymer bearings (Thordon-compatible), and cutless rubber bearings. These components are critical for propeller shaft support and are supplied with classification society material certificates.
Transmission Components
Beyond bearings, we supply the mechanical transmission components that connect and transfer power between rotating equipment. Flexible couplings (jaw type, disc type, gear type) absorb misalignment and vibration between driver and driven equipment. Our range includes Lovejoy, Rexnord, and Renold-compatible designs in cast iron, steel, and stainless steel construction.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you cross-reference bearings to SKF or FAG part numbers?
Yes. Provide the OEM bearing designation (e.g., SKF 22328 CC/W33) and we will identify the equivalent from our approved manufacturers with matching dimensions, clearance class, and load ratings.
Are your bearings genuine branded or Chinese-manufactured?
We supply quality Chinese-manufactured bearings from ISO-certified factories, not counterfeit branded products. All bearings are clearly marked with the manufacturer’s own brand. Performance specifications meet or exceed the referenced OEM standards.
What precision grades are available?
Standard supply is P0 (normal) precision per ISO 492. Higher precision grades P6, P5, and P4 are available for applications requiring tighter tolerances, such as machine tool spindles or high-speed motors.
Can you supply stern tube bearings with classification approval?
Yes. Our stern tube bearing manufacturers hold CCS and BV type approvals. Bearings are supplied with material certificates and can be inspected by the classification society surveyor at the factory.
What is the lead time for non-standard bearing sizes?
Standard catalogue bearings ship within 1-2 weeks. Non-standard or large-bore bearings (above 300 mm ID) typically require 4-8 weeks depending on type and precision grade.
