About Revolvo

Revolvo, OE Bearing's principal supplier, based in Dudley in the West Midlands of the United Kingdom, has been manufacturing high quality rolling element bearings since 1968 and list all the major bearing companies as customers.

Revolvo was initially set up by WYKO to manufacture discontinued bearings which are made in small batches as low as 1 or 2 bearings. In 1993 the Revolvo Formula 1 division was launched producing high quality, high precision bearings for all formula 1 teams except Ferrari and Sauber. These precision production methods coupled with the limited production runs was ideally suited to the manufacture of split bearings which are not made in large volumes.

Until 1994 Cooper Split bearings held a monopoly of the world market prior to the development of SRB product. This in view the SRB Split Bearing Brand, a division of Revolvo, was developed by Klaus Berteld the retired Managing Director of Cooper Germany who had more than 40 years experience in the split bearing Industry. The SRB product was extensively tested at Leeds University and went into full production in 1997.
Today Revolvo has a modern, well equipped manufacturing plant, producing high quality rolling element bearings. As an ISO 9001:2000 certified company, excellence in design & manufacturing is their guiding principle. There has been a high level of investment in cellular manufacturing, including the latest state of the art CNC machining centres.

Bearing production is separated into cellular based product groups, which enhances their service capability by reducing manufacturing lead times, whilst optimising manufacturing standards and responsiveness. Revolvo has the process capability of manufacturing bearings with a maximum outside diameter of 1500 mm. Bearing housings up to a maximum outside diameter of 1800 mm can be accommodated
