Matters to Consider When Using Imported Bearings

Imported bearings are known for their high quality and precision, which contribute to their excellent performance. However, improper use during installation or operation can significantly reduce their lifespan and even cause damage. To ensure optimal performance and longevity, it's essential to pay attention to several key factors during the application process. First, when handling the device, be careful and avoid forcing the bearing into place. Never hit the bearing directly with a hammer or apply pressure through the rolling elements. This can lead to deformation or internal damage. Second, use appropriate and precise tools for installation. Avoid using materials like cloth or short fibers that might leave behind debris. These small particles can enter the bearing and cause unnecessary wear and noise. Third, maintain cleanliness in both the bearing and its surrounding environment. Even tiny dust particles can accelerate wear, cause vibration, and produce unwanted noise. Regular cleaning and maintenance are essential to keep the bearing functioning smoothly. Fourth, avoid direct contact with your hands when handling imported bearings. Sweat on your hands can corrode the bearing surfaces, so it's important to wash your hands before handling them. Apply high-quality mineral oil before operation, especially during dry seasons or summer, to prevent rust and ensure smooth movement. Under certain special operating conditions, imported bearings can outperform traditional bearings, particularly under light loads. When the rolling surfaces (raceways and rolling elements) are properly lubricated with a thin oil film, contaminants are effectively kept away, reducing the risk of damage. With proper care and maintenance, the "eternal life" of an imported bearing is indeed achievable.
