Correct maintenance and maintenance will avoid many bearing failures and costly downtime. There are common tips for the use and maintenance of bearings, and the implementation of standardized processes will bring longer life to the bearings you run.

1. Handle and store correctly

To avoid contaminants including moisture, dust or dirt entering bearings, they should be properly handled and stored.

| first of all, the bearing should be placed in the original packaging in a clean, dry and at room temperature environment.

| to avoid unnecessarily processing bearing; For example, they may be exposed to corrosion or contaminants if their cladding is removed too early.

| bearing is precision components, should be handled with care. You should not use dropped components, as this may cause premature failure.

2.Use professional tools

When handling bearings, appropriate equipment should be used, such as truck, forklift, etc.

Use professional tools during bearing installation and disassembly.

Non-dedicated tools may cause unnecessary damage, dents and wear. For example, bearing pullers or induction heaters are designed specifically for bearings.

3.Check bearing box and shaft

Check the physical condition of the housing and shaft before installing the bearing. Wipe the surface with a soft cloth before familiarizing yourself with the proper installation method.

4.Correct installation

When installing bearings, the correct method should be used, depending on the type of bearing and the type of fit.

Centripetal ball bearing rings can be installed in a variety of fits, from sliding fit to compression fit, depending on the type of load, speed and vibration level.

Mounting pressure on the wrong ring may cause damage to the roll.

Similarly, should also avoid too loose or too tight fit, avoid bearing seat gloss too low or round shaft or bearing seat incorrect.

5.Correct lubrication

One of the common reasons for bearing failure is lubrication failure.

This includes using the wrong lubricant, as well as using too much or too little.

Choose the right lubricant by considering environmental conditions, temperature, speed and load.

Bearing experts will be able to make appropriate lubrication recommendations and control bearing lubrication within a few milligrams. Therefore, normal or high grease filling can help the bearing run safely.
