Additionally, the Bearing Specialists Association tries its best to develop in other related fields. It tries to create more profits for its members.

This programme is from American Bearing Manufacturers Association. According to statistics, there are about six hundred billion $ value of the counterfeit bearings annually.

The board of directors will reconsider membership qualifications if the association members are proved to buy or sell the counterfeit bearings.
