We all know that in order to ensure the effective and reliable operation of the self-aligning ball bearing during use, it must be fully lubricated. After lubrication, the use effect of the bearing will be improved, and it is also conducive to maintenance and performance improvement. However, many people do not know what benefits lubrication has for the use of self-aligning ball bearings? After summarizing, China Bearing Network has learned that there are many benefits of lubricating self-aligning ball bearings. It seems that lubrication is of great help to the use of bearings.
Benefits of self-aligning ball bearing lubrication:
1. Prevent or reduce direct metal contact between rolling elements, raceways and cages in bearings, and reduce friction and wear;
2. An oil film is formed on the friction surface. When the pressure oil film is formed, the contact bearing area of the parts can be increased, thereby reducing the contact stress and extending the rolling contact fatigue life;
3. Lubricants have anti-rust and anti-corrosion effects
4. Oil lubrication also has the function of dissipating heat and removing wear particles or intruding pollutants generated during bearing operation;
5. Grease lubrication can increase the sealing performance and prevent the intrusion of external pollutants;
6. It has a certain effect of reducing vibration and noise.
Don't think that lubrication will bring benefits to the self-aligning ball bearings, it's not always the case. In many cases, some ineffective lubrication will not only not help the self-aligning ball bearings, but will also bring some disadvantages. Therefore, when lubricating the self-aligning ball bearings, we must handle it according to the corresponding actual situation, and we must confirm that there is nothing wrong before it can run normally.
