Every minute of unplanned downtime impacts productivity and profitability. Making it to the next planned maintenance stop without any unplanned downtime means overcoming many challenges.
Contaminated environments, heavy radial and axial loads in applications prone to misalignment or shaft deflections are common for the industry. Problems with leaking grease and frequent relubrication in potentially hard to reach lubrication points also add to growing costs – not to mention the potential risks to workplace safety.
The sealed SKF Explorer spherical roller bearings are equipped to help overcome many challenges while providing increased service life:
-
Increased availability of your machines
-
Reduced risk of failure
-
Reduced grease purchase and disposal cost
-
Reduced overall environmental impact
-
Reduced maintenance needs and associated risk of injury
Your SKF authorized distributor or SKF representative can advise if your spherical bearing application would benefit from our sealed version. Ask them today – the answer is often “Yes!” |
