Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force during installation, leading to brinelling or deformation of the bearing races.Utilize a bearing press or induction heater for controlled, even force application. Never hammer the bearing directly.
Incorrect shaft or housing fit, resulting in premature wear or seizure.Verify that the shaft and housing dimensions meet the specified tolerances for the bearing's interference or clearance fit.
