Critical applications

What are critical use cases

Modern rolling bearings are usually manufactured in large series and function excellently in the defined standard range.

Special stresses on the bearing quickly bring rolling bearings to critical operating limits, the operating life of the rolling bearings does not reach the desired specifications. This is referred to as a critical application.

Frequent, special requirements for the rolling bearing system, consisting of rings – rolling elements – cage – seals and lubrication, are:

Low temperatures

Dust / dirt / soiling

Damp and wet environment / high-pressure cleaning

Contact with food in the event of unavoidable contact with lubricants

Condensation in the bearing due to hot/cold (day/night)

Difficult accessibility, relubrication is dangerous or impossible

Vacuum

Radioactivity
