Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force during installation, leading to brinelling or deformation of the polycarbonate races.Use a controlled press or appropriate bearing installation tools, ensuring force is applied evenly and only to the race being fitted.
Contamination of bearing surfaces with debris during handling or installation.Handle bearings in a clean environment and keep them in their original packaging until ready for installation. Clean mating surfaces meticulously.

Common Applications

  • Chemical Processing Equipment
  • Food and Beverage Machinery
  • Medical Devices

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Maximum operating temperature for polycarbonate bearings may be lower than for steel; consult material data sheets for specific limits.
  • While corrosion-resistant, extreme chemical exposure or UV radiation may degrade polycarbonate over extended periods; assess compatibility.
