Bearing replacements have you in a tight spot? Do you deal with rapid bearing replacement, in areas that are challenging to work in or hard to reach? Replacing bearings can be a tedious and time-consuming process, and taking extra steps to do your work, when you don’t have to, is the opposite of efficiency. Solution? […]
Schaeffler’s Corrotect Coating Systems – Preventing Corrosion & Increasing Bearing Life
Are you tired of battling corrosion with your rolling bearings? Corrosion is a common issue with rolling bearings…. That’s right, you’re not alone in this issue. Not only is corrosion common, but it is actually one of the most frequent causes of rolling bearing failure. Rolling bearings are vitally important to the operation of equipment […]
How to Prevent Contamination with a Reliable Bearing Seal
In harsh operating environments, bearings are constantly under attack from contaminants such as dirt, abrasive materials, caustic chemicals, extreme heat, and heavy shock loads. Because of this, selecting the right bearing seal to protect against contamination is often the most important consideration when choosing a bearing and housing assembly. To ensure efficiency in your facility, […]

Investigating Bearing Failure—Spot The Clues & Uncover The Root Cause
According to Schaeffler, 85% of bearing failures are preventable. Learn how to spot the clues to eliminate the problem from the source and maximize your bearing life. Rolling bearings are at the heart of most machines and vehicles. When the bearing goes, the machine or vehicle stops. However, the bearing is often the “victim” and […]
Put An End to Costly Current Damage With Current-Insulated Bearings
Wheelsets and traction motors (rail vehicles), DC and AC motors (drivetrains), and generators (wind power) can all be exposed to electric current—which can be extremely harmful to roller bearings. While it is very difficult to eliminate the causes of bearing voltages that are induced by the motor, it is possible to avoid bearing damage with […]
