Summary

The global market for Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) was estimated to be worth US$ 118 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 66.5 million by 2031 with a CAGR of -8.0% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
A Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) is a type of bearing used in rotating machinery, such as computer fans and hard disk drives, to reduce friction and noise. It is a type of hydrodynamic bearing that uses a thin layer of fluid, typically oil or grease, to separate the rotating shaft from the stationary parts of the bearing.

In an FDB, the fluid is drawn into the bearing by the rotation of the shaft, creating a thin film between the shaft and the bearing. This film of fluid provides a low-friction surface for the shaft to rotate on, reducing wear and noise. The design of an FDB also helps to distribute the load evenly across the bearing, reducing stress and increasing the lifespan of the bearing.
The Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) market is highly concentrated.
