Installation Procedure

1. Clean the bearing and housing thoroughly with a suitable solvent, ensuring no debris or lubricant residue remains. 2. Carefully press the bearing into its designated housing or onto its shaft, applying even pressure to the correct ring (inner for shaft, outer for housing). 3. Once seated, apply the specified lubricant and install any seals or shields according to the equipment manufacturer's guidelines.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Forcing the bearing onto a shaft or into a housing with uneven pressure, leading to brinelling or distortion of the raceways.Use a bearing press or appropriate induction heater for controlled and even installation. Always apply pressure to the ring that is in direct contact with the mounting surface.
Contaminating the bearing during installation by handling with dirty hands or in a dusty environment.Always work in a clean environment and handle the bearing with clean, lint-free gloves. Keep the bearing in its original packaging until immediately before installation.
