Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force directly to the outer ring during shaft mounting.Always apply force to the inner ring when mounting on the shaft, and to the outer ring when mounting in the housing, using appropriate tools.
Contaminating the bearing during installation.Handle bearings with clean hands and tools, and keep them in their original packaging until ready for installation. Use clean lubricants.

Common Applications

  • Food processing equipment
  • Marine applications
  • Chemical processing machinery

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper lubrication for optimal service life and performance.
  • Avoid exposing the bearing to extreme shock loads or vibrations beyond its rated capacity.
