According to the researchers, the new bearings are designed to withstand extreme temperatures, high loads, and corrosive environments, while also offering reduced friction and improved efficiency. The technology could be particularly useful in the aerospace, automotive, and industrial sector, where bearings are critical components in many manufacturing processes.

The deep groove design is particularly advantageous for radial loads, as it enables the bearing to support forces that act perpendicular to the shaft's axis. Additionally, the deep groove configuration allows the bearing to accommodate some degree of axial load, although axial load capacity is typically lower than radial load capacity in deep groove ball bearings.
