According to the latest data released by China Customs, the country’s bearing industry maintained robust export growth from January to May 2025, confirming China’s leadership in the global bearing supply chain.
In just five months, Chinese manufacturers exported nearly 85 million tapered roller bearings, valued at approximately 1.8 billion RMB. Tapered roller bearings are critical components in automotive, construction, and heavy machinery due to their exceptional load-carrying and durability characteristics. This volume reflects steady international demand supported by infrastructure development and industrial upgrades.
Thrust ball bearings also performed strongly, with exports reaching 1.42 billion RMB, meeting global requirements for high-speed, high-precision rotating equipment. Additionally, needle roller bearings achieved exports worth 735 million RMB, while cylindrical roller bearings reached 762 million RMB, consolidating China’s presence in the roller bearing segment worldwide.
Exports of bearing parts — including balls, needles, and rollers — exceeded 1.15 billion RMB, demonstrating strong demand in the global maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) market. Bearing housings recorded exports over 700 million RMB, supporting global modular machinery and repair industries.
