LUBRICATION
Bearings have been factory prelubricated with high quality grease and for Normal conditions of Service require no further
lubrication.
Normal Service is considered as operation in a clean, dry, atmosphere at temperatures between -20F and 180F and at
shaft surface speeds up to 2100 ft. per minute. This corresponds to a 1" shaft at 8000 RI'M, a 2" shaft at 4000 RPM or a
3" shaft at 2700 RPM.
Where service is Abnormal with respect to speed, temperature, exposure to moisture, dirt or corrosive chemicals, or
where extremely long life is required, periodic relubrication may be advisable. To relubricate remove pipe plug and replace
with a standard 1/8 pipe thread grease fitting. The Bearing Company will advise of suitable greases for abnormal service
on request.
For bearing replacements, order by number on seal
(not on inner or outer ring).
