Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive force directly to the outer ring during installation, which can damage the raceways.Apply force only to the inner ring when mounting onto a shaft, or use a bearing heater for controlled thermal expansion.
Introducing contaminants during handling and installation.Keep the bearing in its original packaging until ready for installation and work in a clean environment.
