Barden Corporation (UK) Ltd

The Barden product line encompasses predominantly radial, single row, super precision angular contact and deep groove ball bearings, incorporating full complement bearings and hybrid bearings as well as standard designs and materials. Bearings come in inch or metric dimensions with diameters ranging from 4mm (0.16") outer diameter (OD) up to 180mm (approx 7") OD and operate comfortably at speeds of 2 million dN (bore in mm x RPM) or above. A variety of bearing seals, shields and metallic/non-metallic cage designs are available for all products. 

Barden is also an EASA part 145 approved repair station for aerospace bearings, offering refurbishment options for bearings up to 300mm.

Repair or replace?
Barden's repair service provides customers with a specialist solution when it's needed most. We understand it's vital that an aircraft spends time in the air and not in the hangar.

Maintenance programmes for aircraft engine components and APUs have become increasingly important. Barden's EASA Part-145 approved diagnosis and repair (D&R) facility for aerospace approved bearings provides a viable alternative to replacement. Costs can be much less than for new bearings and with a typical turnaround time of just 7 days, the impact of lengthy downtime can be significantly reduced. Bearings are returned to an 'as-new' operating condition, with full aerospace approval.
  We specialise in the repair of bearings of up to 300mm for any industry where regulatory approvals are high or where full traceability of the bearings is required, including the nuclear, rail and military industries. End applications include small engines, gearboxes, oil pumps and auxiliary power units (APUs).

Custom designed and manufactured aerospace bearings are the cornerstone of the Barden product line. Aerospace bearings can be manufactured to ABEC 7/9 (ISO P4/P2)  and fully certified, so quality and product precision is ensured throughout the product range.

Barden has supplied bearings for applications in pneumatic and electric starters and generators, gearboxes, main engines and a variety of auxiliary aircraft positions. Barden aerospace bearings are capable of high speed, reliable operation and running quietly with minimum power losses, making them well suited to applications in this sector.
