SKF bearing damage causes and analysis

Writer: Eric Bearing Limited

  If you notice the SKF bearing damage causes, you may found tht the shaft bearing damaged in most cases, it lead them can't work. In general, bearing fatigue damage caused by damage only a third from bad lubrication occurs, and a third other pollutants into the bearings or install not handled properly. But the damage is not relevant industry type bearings is precision parts, therefore we should takes a long time with cautious attitude, even with high performance bearing, if use undeserved, can't reach the expected performance effect, and easy to lead bearing damage.

  Therefore, the using of the bearing should pay attention to the followings:

  First, keep SKF bearing and its surrounding environment clean, even the tiny invisible dust, would increase the wear and tear, vibration and noise of bearing.

  Second, using and installation should be carefully, let a powerful punch, prohibit to use hammer to directly hit bearing not allowed activate collaterals pressure.

  Third,we should take the appropriate, accurate installation tools as well as some special tools, try to avoid using cloth and short fibers, etc.

  At last, prevent bearing corrosion from picking directly by hand, we should fully wash cleaning sweat, then with the high quality mineral oil covering the bearing,and pay particular attention to rust in rainy season and summer. However, in some special operation conditions, the bearing can obtain a longer life than traditional calculation, especially in the light load conditions. These special operating conditions is, when the roll surface (rail and rolling parts) is a kind of effective lubrication membrane separation and limit the contamination would lead to surface damage.
