Koyo is certifying „Waelzlager- & Antriebstechnik“ as new Distributor for Needle Roller Components
The Bodensee based company will be added to the distributor network, starting with the promotion of needle roller components retroactively by Jan 1st 2019.
“Waelzlager- & Antriebstechnik” – shortly named W&A – see themselves as system specialist for all issues that relate to motion- and drive technologies.
W&A´s hybrid function is a diverse split in-between being a wholesaler for rotating applications, but also in the same way problem solving specialists for any kind of technical applications with consultant expertise.
The Company started already in 2001 as spare part seller for the mechanical engineering industries.
Being announced as Plus-Partner in the segment of Bearings, W&A and Koyo aim to tighten the network and support their customer activities interregionally.
Koyo handed-over the distributor certificate during the FMB Süd – local supply fair for machine building – in Augsburg, earlier this Year.
Mr. Sven Bäuerle – General Manager of W&A – appreciated the certification as a foundation stone for the future activities of both companies.
WELCOME W&A to the Koyo Distribution Partner network!
JTEKT/Koyo will be exhibiting its products and latest technologies, in Hall 22, booth A31. If you happen to be around, do not hesitate to visit us.
Koyo is one of the 6 largest global roller bearing manufacturers. One of its core competences is the design and manufacturing of TRB's. To meet the global energy saving demands (to reduce fuel consumption, CO2 emission, etc.) Koyo has been developing light friction type TRB's progressively over the years. For more (technical) details read the related article in BearingNews:
The price increase for Koyo bearings will be effective as of the 1st of February 2019:
4,9% (flat increase) for all main series

An angular contact ball bearing uses axially asymmetric races. An axial load passes in a straight line through the bearing, whereas a radial load takes an oblique path that tends to want to separate the races axially. So the angle of contact on the inner race is the same as that on the outer race. Angular contact bearings better support "combined loads" (loading in both the radial and axial directions) and the contact angle of the bearing should be matched to the relative proportions of each. The larger the contact angle (typically in the range 10 to 45 degrees), the higher the axial load supported, but the lower the radial load. In high speed applications, such as turbines, jet engines, and dentistry equipment, the centrifugal forces generated by the balls changes the contact angle at the inner and outer race. Ceramics such as silicon nitride are now regularly used in such applications due to their low density (40% of steel). These materials significantly reduce centrifugal force and function well in high temperature environments. They also tend to wear in a similar way to bearing steel—rather than cracking or shattering like glass or porcelain.
Most bicycles use angular-contact bearings in the headsets because the forces on these bearings are in both the radial and axial direction.
