• Commonly employed in mechanical assemblies requiring high load capacities
• Suitable for use in electrical equipment where space is restricted
• Typically found in mobile machinery subjected to dynamic stresses What specific maintenance practices are necessary for optimal performance? Regular inspection is vital, as well as periodic lubrication to maintain the sliding contact surfaces. It is also important to clean sealing areas to prevent dirt accumulation that could impede performance. How does the sealing feature benefit operational reliability? The dual lip seals effectively prevent ingress of dirt and moisture, which could lead to premature wear, thereby extending the bearing's service life and maintaining operational efficiency. What are the implications of its radial internal clearance? The normal internal clearance allows for sufficient movement without compromising performance, reducing the risk of seising and ensuring smooth operation during fluctuating load conditions.
