How to Protect Rolling-Element Bearings
What Is The Best Way To Lube Roller-Element Bearings?
Efficient rolling-element bearings are essential to large manufacturers. Rolling-element bearings carry loads by placing round elements between two pieces. These bearings, also called anti-friction bearings, are very popular for numerous reasons. One, they are more cost-effective. Two, they are more durable. More importantly, they increase carrying loads and decrease friction rotation.
Types of Rolling-Element Bearings
Manufacturers use various types of rolling-element bearings to move material efficiently. The following are different types of commonly used roller-element bearings.
- Needle rolling bearings-use very long and thin cylinders. Often the ends of the rollers taper to points.
- Cylindrical roller bearings-use cylinders of slightly greater length than diameter.
- Gear bearings-concentric alternation of rollers and gearwheels.
- Tapered roller bearings use conical rollers that run on conical races.
- Spherical roller bearings- have an outer ring with an internal spherical shape.
Unprotected bearings can fail due to wear, fatigue and welding. One of the best ways to protect rolling-element bearings is to use Schaeffer Oil’s Polyurea Grease. Polyurea Grease is a premium quality, high temperature, extreme pressure polyurea grease that provides the appropriate lubrication for rolling-element bearings.
This Polyurea Grease is blended and compounded with high-quality base oils. It contains an ashless organic polyurea thickener and rust and oxidation inhibitors. The extreme pressure additive system is non-corrosive to yellow metals.
