Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force during installation, leading to brinelling or cracking of the polycarbonate raceways.Use a bearing press or appropriate tooling to apply force evenly to the bearing's inner or outer ring as required, avoiding direct impact on the raceways.
Contamination of the bearing during handling or installation, reducing its lifespan and performance.Handle the bearing in a clean environment and avoid direct contact with lubricants or solvents not explicitly approved for polycarbonate bearings.

Common Applications

  • Lightweight machinery components
  • Corrosion-resistant power transmission systems
  • Medical equipment
  • Food processing machinery
  • Electrical insulation applications

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for applications involving high shock loads or extreme temperatures.
  • Ensure chemical compatibility with surrounding media, as aggressive solvents may degrade polycarbonate.
