Segment Insights & Market Share Analysis of the Railway Bearings Market:

The global Railway Bearings Market is segmented based on Train type, Material type, Bearing type and region.

Based on Train Type

• Based on the train type, the railway bearings market is segmented as locomotive, bogie & carriage, railcar, and others.
• The locomotive is expected to steer the market demand during the forecast period.
•  Expansion of rail network infrastructure, rising urbanization and environmental sustainability, technological advances in design and structures of locomotives aimed at higher pulling capacities, and lower fuel consumption are some of the key factors driving the demand for bearings in the locomotive segment.

Based on Bearing Type

• Based on the bearing type, the market is segmented as ball bearing, roller bearing, plain bearing, and others.
• Ball bearings are further classified as angular contact ball bearing, deep groove ball bearing, and others. In a similar way, roller bearings are further classified as tapered roller, cylindrical roller, spherical roller, and others.
• Roller bearings are expected to remain the largest segment of the market during the forecast period, driven by the growing usage of tapered roller bearings, across the industry for a wide range of applications.

Based on Material Type

• Based on the material type, the market is segmented as metallic bearing, non-metallic bearing, and hybrid bearing.
• Metallic bearings are expected to remain the dominant segment of the market during the forecast period.
• High load handling and excellent wear-resistant capacity of stainless steel position it as a desirable material type for OEMs and bearing manufacturers.
• The application of hybrid bearings is limited to electric motors, where under unfavorable conditions, metallic bearings could be damaged by the passage of current.
