BEARING TYPE:

Single row ball bearing

CONDITIONS:

Flour and dough particles get into the bearings, causing premature bearing failure. Customer used an oil/lube tube to try to lubricate the bearing. Speed 800 RPM. Temperature 100°F.

RESULTS:

MicroPoly is providing lubrication and at the same time is keeping the flour and dough out of the bearing. Customer has eliminated the lube pipes for the bearing.
