Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the bearing during installation, leading to premature fatigue.Utilize a controlled press fit or induction heater for accurate and even thermal expansion during mounting. Never apply force directly to the outer ring when installing onto a shaft.
Insufficient or incorrect lubrication, causing excessive heat and wear.Consult the bearing manufacturer's specifications for the correct type and quantity of lubricant. Ensure re-greasing intervals are adhered to.

Common Applications

  • Electric Motors
  • Gearboxes
  • Pumps
  • Conveyor Systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposing the bearing to corrosive environments without proper sealing or coating.
  • Ensure proper shaft and housing fits to prevent brinelling or fretting corrosion.
