We all know that during the use of self-aligning ball bearings, in order to ensure the effective and reliable operation of the bearings, there must be sufficient lubrication. After lubrication, the use of the bearings will be improved, and the maintenance performance will be improved. However, there are still many people. I don’t know what the benefits of lubrication for the use of self-aligning ball bearings? After summing up, it is known that the self-aligning ball bearing has many advantages after lubrication. It seems that lubrication is very helpful for the use of the bearing.

Self-aligning ball bearing lubrication benefits:

1. Prevent or reduce direct contact between the rolling elements, raceways and cages in the bearing to reduce friction and wear;

2. Forming an oil film on the friction surface. When the pressure oil film is formed, the contact bearing area of the part can be increased, thereby reducing the contact stress and prolonging the rolling contact fatigue life;

3, the lubricant has anti-rust, anti-corrosion effect

4. Oil lubrication also has the function of dissipating heat and removing worn particles or invading contaminants generated during bearing operation;

5, grease lubrication can play a role in increasing the seal to prevent the invasion of external pollutants;

6, has a certain role of vibration and noise reduction.

Don’t think that doing lubrication will bring benefits to the centering ball, not all. In many cases, there are some ineffective lubrication that not only does not help the self-aligning ball bearing, but it will bring some drawbacks. Therefore, when we carry out the lubrication of the self-aligning ball bearing, we should deal with it according to the actual situation. It must be confirmed that it will be normal before it can operate normally.
