Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force to the inner ring during press-fit into a shaft.Always apply force to the outer ring when fitting into a housing, and to the inner ring when fitting onto a shaft to avoid damaging the bearing raceways.
Improper lubrication during installation.Ensure the bearing is adequately lubricated with the specified grease or oil before and during installation to prevent premature wear.

Common Applications

  • Marine equipment
  • Food processing machinery
  • Chemical handling systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid impact loads that exceed the bearing's rated capacity.
  • Ensure proper sealing and lubrication to maintain performance in corrosive environments.
