Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using excessive force during installation, leading to brinelling or damage to raceways.Utilize a proper bearing press or induction heater for controlled installation, applying force evenly to the bearing's inner or outer ring as appropriate.
Contamination of the bearing during handling or installation.Keep bearings in their original packaging until ready for installation and handle with clean, lint-free gloves.
