Many types of bearings are used within the GVB Rail Equipment department. The type and supplier of bearings are often prescribed by vehicle manufacturers or their suppliers. "Generic bearing", however, means that the bearing type is interchangeable with bearings from another supplier based on form, fit, function and service life. In general, these are (ISO, DIN, ANSI, ABEC) standardized bearings. This tender concerns the generic bearings.
The need for bearings at GVB comes from the maintenance of the vehicles. This applies, for example, to bearings of doors, pantographs, and the like.
