Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force during installation, leading to brinelling or housing damage.Use a bearing press or appropriate sleeve to apply even pressure during installation. Avoid hammering directly on the bearing.
Contaminating the bearing during handling or installation.Handle the bearing with clean hands or gloves and install it in a clean environment to prevent ingress of dust or foreign particles.

Common Applications

  • Electric motor shafts
  • Conveyor systems
  • Industrial machinery

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper lubrication is maintained throughout the bearing's service life.
