After 10 years of offering news & updates, the SMB Bearings Ltd blog has been replaced.

to visit our website's news page.

It's been great fun, thanks for visiting us!

New website & news area at SMB Bearings...

We have some exciting news about our website - we have been busy developing a new one!

One important change is that the SMB Bearings Ltd Blog, which has been running since November 2008, will be moving to SMB's website & will now feature on our website's NEWS tab:

SMB's News page will replace SMB's Blog...

The site will be launched very soon (as soon as the final touches are in place & it's been tested to perfection - well, nearly 😝) & has been optimised to fit as much information as we can possibly give you about our bearings into a super-fast web-friendly space ☺🚀

Optimised access to our product range, coming soon!

If you can't find what you're looking for we are of course still on hand to guide you through the enormous range of available bearings, materials & lubrication that we can offer.

We'll let you know when the new website is up & running & look forward to receiving your feedback on it - in the meantime, you can still visit us at SMB Bearings to find product guidance on the 1.5 million bearings that we have in stock today.  

SMB Bearings Interchange now live...

Our technical department have just finished work on our updated bearing search & interchange:

This function will help to provide a fast conversion of manufacturer or competitor part numbers & you can also identify bearings if you have sizes/dimensions but no part number, or if you have a part number which you don't quite recognize...

An example of a search on our new interchange.

Of course there are times where it's best just to speak to someone, so if you're having difficulty finding a direct interchange please feel free to continue contacting us if you need extra help identifying those tricky little bearings you've got :-)

SMB Bearings LTD Website - new pages launched...

Our technical department have been extremely busy lately, fine-tuning aspects of our website so that we can offer the maximum amount of product & technical information to our customers & the newly developed pages have gone live this morning.

Whole new ranges have been added to our portfolio & we can now source ceramic & 316 stainless steel bearings for specialist applications. 

We hope that you can now find all the information that you could possibly ever need on our bearing ranges & support services, but do please feel free to contact us if you need pricing information or advice on bearing selection/ answers to technical questions - we'll look forward to helping you with any enquiries that you may have.

In a short while the site's bearing interchange & search facility will also go live, giving access to (& explanations of) thousands of different manufacturer's part references - we'll let you know just as soon as it's been completed.

2015 at SMB Bearings Ltd...

A belated Happy New Year & welcome to 2015 to all our lovely friends & followers - all of us at SMB Bearings wish you every happiness & success for the coming year.

Now that the chaos of returning to work & kicking off a busy 2015 has calmed down a bit, we've begun contemplating what the future holds for SMB this year...

I know we said this first in 2011, but we're actually doing it - WE'RE MOVING!!! 

Our new home...

Ventura Park, Broadshires Way, Carterton...

Work is scheduled to begin inside our swanky new premises in the next six weeks & we'll be moving in later in the summer. Very importantly the move means that we'll be able to increase our bearing stock range from our current 2000+ individual sizes & have even more speciality miniature bearings in stock.

This is an aerial view of SMB's new home, we're the lovely big unit here on the bottom left of the image...

Also coming later this year is SMB's new paper catalogue - old-school but super handy for reference - it's definitely time for a new version, as our stock range has grown significantly & a couple of staff members have an awful lot less hair than when the last version came out over a twelve years ago!

The last SMB Bearings catalogue, in which people still had hair...

Officially antique now, the original SMB catalogue circa 1985... it was typed!!

The finalised version of our new website - tweeked & optimised to the full - is also due to put in an appearance... what a busy bunch we're going to be!!

We're looking forward to bringing news from SMB Bearings 

& from our wonderful friends & customers as the year progresses.
