Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force during installation, potentially damaging the polycarbonate cage or raceways.Use a bearing press or a controlled, even force application. Avoid hammering the bearing into place.
Over-greasing or using incompatible lubricants that can degrade the polycarbonate material.Consult the bearing manufacturer's specifications for recommended lubricants. Use only small amounts of appropriate grease.

Common Applications

  • Conveyor Systems
  • Light Machinery
  • Chemical Processing Equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for heavy-duty or high-speed applications due to polycarbonate's material limitations.
  • Operating temperature range for polycarbonate bearings is generally lower than steel; consult specifications.
