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 proper bearing press with a suitable adapter that distributes force evenly across the bearing's outer ring or shaft.
Exposing the polycarbonate bearing to solvents or chemicals it is not rated for, causing material degradation.Consult the material compatibility chart for polycarbonate and ensure the operating environment does not exceed its chemical resistance limits.

Common Applications

  • Chemical Processing Equipment
  • Food and Beverage Machinery
  • Conveyor Systems in Corrosive Environments
  • Marine and Offshore Equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for high axial loads or heavy radial loads.
  • Operating temperature range must be considered; consult material specifications for polycarbonate limits.
