By end use, the plain bearing market is driven by the automotive sector, which accounted for over half the global market in 2015. The sector is also projected to register a CAGR higher than any other end-use segment during the course of the forecast period. Geographically, Asia Pacific was the leading market for plain bearings and accounted for 39% of the overall market in 2015.

Plain bearings are most popularly used in the automotive industry and the soaring production of motor vehicles globally is directly impacting the growth in the demand for plain bearings used in auto parts.

“The global production of motor vehicles in 2015 was pegged at 89.7 mn units by the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers and various bearing manufacturers are catering to this rising demand in the automotive sector,” the author of the study states.

The rising demand for plain bearings in the defense and aerospace industries is also a major factor boosting this market. “The governments of various nations around the world have been revving up their defense infrastructure and this has significantly contributed to the growing demand for plain bearings,” the analyst observes. For instance, the Turkish government has been taking steps to locally manufacture passenger aircraft, helicopters, jet fighters, and unmanned aerial vehicles on a large scale, leading to the rising demand for industrial bearings.

On the flip side, the shrinking after-sales market and an increase in counterfeit products act as deterrents to the plain bearings market. However, the impact of both these factors is forecast to remain low from 2016 to 2024.
