Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Applying excessive or uneven force during installation.Use a proper bearing press or induction heater and ensure even pressure is applied to the correct ring (inner or outer) to prevent race distortion.
Contaminating the bearing during handling or installation.Handle the bearing with clean, lint-free gloves and keep it in its original packaging until ready for installation. Cleanliness is paramount.
