| Fretting surfaces wear producing red rust colored particles that form
hollows. On the raceway surface, dents called false brinelling
are formed at spacing equal to distances corresponding to the
rolling elements. |
If a vibrating load works on contacting elements resulting in small amplitude
oscillation, lubricant is driven out form contact, and parts are
worn remarkably. Oscillation angle of the bearing is small. Poor
lubrication (no lubrication) Fluctuating load Vibration during
transportation Vibration, shaft deflection, installation error,
loose fit. |
- Inner ring and outer ring should be packaged separately
for transportation. If not separable, bearings should be preloaded.
- Use oil or high consistency grease when bearings are used
for oscillation motion.
- Change lubricant
- Fix shaft and housing
- Improve fit
