Why Zambia needs ball bearings

Zambia is Africa's second-largest copper producer. The Copperbelt drives most industrial demand, while Lusaka is the commercial centre. Cargo arrives by road or rail through Dar es Salaam, Durban, Beira or Walvis Bay.

Bearings are wear parts: every motor, pump, conveyor pulley, gearbox and farm machine has them, and plants replace them on a fixed maintenance cycle or after a failure that stops production.

Copper and cobalt mines in the Copperbelt and North-Western Province are heavy users of conveyors, bearings, couplings and pumps.

In Zambia, open-pit and underground mines and mineral processing plants buy ball bearings from us mainly for electric motors and gearboxes and pumps, fans and blowers.
