Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying force to the outer race during shaft mounting.Always apply mounting force to the inner race to prevent brinelling and damage to the bearing.
Overtightening retaining components.Ensure retaining components are snug but do not deform the bearing or its housing, which can lead to premature failure.

Common Applications
