World's Smallest Ball Bearings with Ultra-small Outer Diameter of 1.5 mm

World’s smallest steel ball bearing capable of being mass produced was born of MinebeaMitsumi’s passion for ultra precision. Although it is tiny, its precision and performance are comparable with other bearings. These bearings are being installed in Japan’s finest mechanical watches, and we expect their applications to expand into a variety of fields and products in the future.
