Installation Procedure

1. Ensure the shaft and housing bores are clean and free from debris. 2. Carefully press the bearing onto the shaft or into the housing, applying even pressure to the correct ring (inner ring for shaft mounting, outer ring for housing mounting). 3. Verify proper axial and radial clearance before fully seating the bearing.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying force to the wrong bearing ring during installation.Always apply mounting force to the ring that is being press-fitted (inner ring for shaft, outer ring for housing).
Contaminating the bearing during handling or installation.Handle bearings in a clean environment and avoid direct contact with bare hands. Use clean tools and lubricants.

Common Applications

  • Conveyor systems
  • Electric motors
  • Pumps and compressors

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not exceed the maximum recommended load ratings.
