Europe Sliding Bearing Market Size

The Europe sliding bearing market reached USD 334.26 million in 2023. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.22% between 2024 and 2032, reaching USD 480.38 million by 2032.

 

Europe Sliding Bearing Market Outlook

  • According to Escola Europea, EU Member States received a total funding of Euro 40.65 billion for rail infrastructure in 2020.
  • As per ACEA, about 298 factories across Europe manufacture engines and other automobile components as of 2021.
  • Data from IEA revealed that 14 million electric cars were sold in 2023 and Europe and the UK account for most sales.

 

Europe Sliding Bearing Market Growth

The growth of the Europe sliding bearing market is propelled by metallic materials, as they efficiently disperse heat and transmit electricity because of their excellent thermal and electrical conductivity.

Metallic sliding bearings, such as bronze or steel, exhibit exceptional load-bearing capacities, ideal for heavy loads and pressures. They efficiently dissipate heat and conduct electricity due to their superior thermal and electrical conductivity. Their corrosion resistance, seen in alloys like stainless steel, ensures durability in harsh conditions, while their ability to withstand high temperatures suits elevated operational settings.

 

Non-metallic sliding bearings, made of polymers or composites, possess low friction properties, reducing wear and energy consumption. Materials like PTFE or nylon have inherent self-lubricating traits, minimizing the need for external lubrication. Lightweight and resistant to chemicals, they are used in weight-sensitive aerospace or automotive applications, ensuring durability in corrosive industrial environments.

 

In November 2023, SpinDrive raised about 3.8 million euros to propel its magnetic levitation bearing into the industrial market. With frictionless magnetic levitation technology, they improved the overall efficiency of industrial processes by eliminating maintenance downtime and reducing energy consumption.
