Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force during installation, leading to brinelling or damage to the polycarbonate races.Use a controlled press or appropriate bearing installation tool to apply force uniformly and gradually.
Using incompatible lubricants or cleaning agents that degrade the polycarbonate material.Consult the material compatibility chart for polycarbonate lubricants and cleaning agents to ensure material integrity.

Common Applications

  • Food and Beverage Processing Equipment
  • Medical and Pharmaceutical Machinery
  • Chemical Processing and Handling Systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Maximum operating temperature limits for polycarbonate must be strictly adhered to.
  • Avoid exposure to abrasive materials or extreme impact loads which could compromise the bearing's integrity.
