Industry-specific website of bearing supply companies launched to enable and inform industrial buyers & specifiers

Verdex® has successfully launched BearingsHQ (www.bearingshq.com), the fourth of many web-based "vertical-market headquarters" presenting industrial buyers and specifiers with a comprehensive selection of in-depth product information, manufacturing and supply resources, and daily industry news - all in one place. BearingsHQ joins AdhesivesHQ (www.adhesiveshq.com), MaterialHandlingHQ (www.materialhandlinghq.com) and FastenersHQ (www.fastenershq.com) to round out a quartet of portals enabling buyers to source globally.

Upon entering BearingsHQ, the user is presented with more than 100 bearing product categories - from ball bearings to linear bearings, pillow block bearings to rotary bearings, for machine tools to airplanes - among 5 main bearing classifications, those being: type, material, special characteristics, application, and related equipment & supplies. Selecting the bearing product category takes the visitor to U.S. and non-U.S. manufacturers and suppliers of that bearing product, along with the latest product data. To further enhance the convenience and functionality of the site, BearingsHQ’s list of keyword links and the site's search box are flanked by bearings industry news and tradeshow information as well. Verdex Group Publisher, Frank Russo, states "As a division of Thomas Publishing Company, LLC, Verdex brings together industry’s most comprehensive and useful information sources - such as The Thomas Register of American Manufacturers, Industrial Equipment News, and Thomas Regional Buying Guides. To that we’ve added industry news and related events, all presented through one, easy-to-use interface, saving visitors an incredible amount of time, money and effort otherwise spent using conventional ‘piecemeal’ resources."
