Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying force to the outer ring during shaft installationAlways apply installation force to the inner ring when mounting onto the shaft to prevent brinelling and damage to the raceways.
Over-tightening retaining elementsEnsure retaining rings or housings are snug but do not exert excessive force that could distort the bearing or preload it unevenly.

Common Applications

  • Food Processing Equipment
  • Marine Environments
  • Lightweight Conveyor Systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for high-temperature applications due to aluminum's thermal properties.
  • Avoid exposure to highly abrasive environments where aluminum's wear resistance may be compromised.
