About RBC - Hartsville
The RBC Bearings Hartsville, South Carolina facility, located at 2268 S 5th St, Hartsville, SC 29550, was opened in 1966. The facility has been through several modernizations since that time and today has the capability to produce a range of different bearing types with sizes ranging from 1-inch to 43-inches in outer diameter. A leading product produced at this facility is Cam Followers for a wide range of applications, including the innovative RBC Roller design that was invented by RBC Bearings in 1990. The RBC Bearings Roller design is a unique patented two-roller per path Cam Follower which allows for higher load capacity in a sealed for life configuration. It has been a problem solver for very demanding applications in the oil & gas, material handling, packaging, and aluminum beverage can industries.
RBC Bearings Hartsville is also the main production facility for industrial Spherical Plain Bushings between the sizes of 1-inch and 4 ½-inch outer diameter, produces self-lubricating lined spherical plain bushings to provide maintenance free capability. Maintenance free bearings is a strong emerging technology in the mining and construction industries serviced by this product.
RBC Bearings Hartsville is also the main production facility for RBC’s heavy bearings offering in tapered roller, tapered thrust, and cylindrical bearings from 12-inch to 43-inch diameter. This offering includes use of RBC’s unique MAX3™ steel technology that allows for increased load capacity and extended bearing life. Heavy cross section bearings produced at this facility service the oil & gas industry in fracking pumps, top drive, and power swivel applications. RBC’s offering of large diameter taper roller bearings is also used for mining electric wheel motor applications.
