Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying mounting force to the outer ring when pressing onto the shaft.Always apply mounting force exclusively to the inner ring when installing onto the shaft to prevent brinelling and damage to the raceways.
Inadequate or incorrect lubrication.Use the specified lubricant type and quantity. Over- or under-lubrication can lead to premature failure. Consult bearing specifications for optimal lubrication.

Common Applications

  • Industrial Gearboxes
  • Electric Motors
