Custom Solutions
Radial Bearing delivers fully customized motion control solutions designed, engineered, and manufactured to solve your toughest challenges. From materials and finishes to performance specs and part geometries, our custom components are tailored to meet the unique demands of your application.

Product Overview
Custom solutions are where Radial Bearing’s engineering strength truly shines. We partner with OEMs and specialized manufacturers to develop rod ends, spherical bearings, and assemblies that support complex motion, withstand harsh environments, and meet tight tolerances.
Whether you’re looking for a slight variation on a standard part or a clean-sheet design, our custom engineering process is collaborative, efficient, and quality-certified.
We build solutions that integrate seamlessly into your system—whether for aerospace flight controls, military vehicles, racing platforms, or heavy-duty machinery.
