Across a myriad of industries, bearings are used to mitigate the movement of rotating shafts and other parts while protecting nearby parts from vibrations. Additionally, bearings are used to support countless important operations in different applications because of their versatility; thus, they experience a great deal of wear and tear over the duration of their lives, but frequent repairs or replacements can become costly. To secure your bearings in place, you may consider procuring a bearing house, a protective outer frame to hold your bearing securely in place. Depending on your specific application, there are a few factors to consider prior to purchase, as bearing housings vary in design. For your better understanding of the basic elements of a bearing housing, this blog will explore the varying components that make up a secure and supportive apparatus.

A majority of aircraft are equipped with trim devices, which are adjustable flight control surfaces that enable pilots to change the aerodynamic forces that aircraft are exposed to. With the application of trim devices, pilots do not need to constantly apply pressure to control systems. As airplanes vary in design, there are many different types of trim devices on the market, some of which we will outline in this blog.
