Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Forcing the bearing installation with excessive impact.Use a bearing press or a soft-faced hammer for controlled and even force application.
Improper alignment during installation, leading to uneven loading.Visually inspect alignment before and during pressing to ensure the bearing is entering the bore or seating on the shaft without cocking.

Common Applications

  • Lightweight electric motor assemblies
  • High-speed fan units
  • Automated material handling systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Aluminum 6061 has a lower load capacity compared to steel bearings; select based on application load requirements.
  • Avoid exposure to aggressive chemicals that may degrade aluminum alloys.
