Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying force to the outer ring during shaft mounting or vice versa.Always apply mounting force to the ring that is being press-fitted. For shaft mounting, apply force to the inner ring; for housing mounting, apply force to the outer ring.
Improper lubrication leading to premature wear.Ensure the bearing is adequately lubricated according to the application's operating conditions and manufacturer recommendations. Use the specified grease or oil.

Common Applications

  • Food and Beverage Processing Equipment
  • Marine and Offshore Equipment
  • Chemical Processing Machinery
  • Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposing the bearing to excessive shock loads, which can damage the raceways and balls.
  • Ensure proper sealing is maintained to prevent contamination by dirt, dust, or corrosive substances.
