Bearings, Seals, & Caps

Bearings used in high-load applications, typically between 1000 kg and 3000 kg, depend on effective sealing to perform reliably. Seals prevent dust and debris from entering the bearing, helping to reduce wear and minimise the risk of failure.

Correct lubrication with suitable grease is essential for smooth operation and extended bearing life. Fitting a protective dust cap can further improve sealing performance, particularly in challenging or variable environments.

Regular inspection and maintenance help ensure seals remain in good condition. In harsh operating conditions, seals can deteriorate over time and should be replaced as required to maintain performance. Selecting high-quality seal materials improves durability and wear resistance.

Monitoring bearing condition can also assist in identifying early signs of wear, allowing issues to be addressed before they lead to more serious damage.
