Rolling SKF bearings are precision components and their use must be carried out with care. No matter how high-performance bearings are used, if not used properly, the expected high performance will not be achieved. The precautions for the use of SKF bearings are as follows.
First, keep the SKF bearings and their surroundings clean
Even tiny dust that is invisible to the naked eye enters SKF bearings, which increases bearing wear, vibration and noise. SKF bearings and their surrounding accessories should be kept clean, especially dust and dirt, and the tools and working environment must be kept clean.
Second, use the installation carefully
Strong stamping is not allowed. It is not allowed to use a hammer to directly hit the SKF bearing. It is not allowed to transmit pressure through the rolling element.
Third, use appropriate and accurate installation tools
Try to use special tools and try to avoid using cloth and short fibers.
Fourth, to prevent the corrosion of SKF bearings
When taking SKF bearings directly by hand, wash off the sweat on your hands and apply high-quality mineral oil before handling. Pay special attention to rust prevention during the rainy season and summer. However, under certain special operating conditions, bearings can achieve longer life than traditional calculations, especially at light loads. These special operating conditions are when the rolling surfaces (tracks and rolling elements) are effectively separated by a lubricant film and the surface damage caused by contaminants is limited. In fact, under ideal conditions, the so-called permanent SKF bearing life is possible.
